It had 1\,800 seats and an early form of air conditioning\, which made it the place to see an be seen in the city!

Rickards and Harry Nace. The Orpheum was designed in the atmospheric style\, with the audience sitting in a garden surrounded by Spanish-style buildings\, murals of mountains\, and forests\, under puffy white clouds moving across a deep blue domed sky. \nFor more information\, check out their website here. \n  \nDETAILS \nMembers get Priority Access to this event.

SUMMARY:Deco Cocktail Night at the Hilton Garden Inn
DESCRIPTION:Are you a member of the Society? Do you love Art Deco? Join members of the Art Deco Society for an evening of cocktails and connection at the former Professional Building (now\, the Downtown Phoenix Hilton Garden Inn) lobby bar\, Monroe’s!  \nThis is a no-host gathering for members and those interested in Art Deco\, where we will gather and enjoy the ambiance of one of Phoenix’s most extravagant Art Deco lobbies. No reservation required\, just show up! Vintage or vintage attire is encouraged\, but not required. All guests are responsible for their own bar tabs. We look forward to seeing you there.  \nAbout the Professional Building: \nThe Professional Building was completed in 1932 by the architectural firm of Morgan\, Walls\, & Clements\, originally constructed as the “National Valley Bank” building. The bank resided on the ground floor\, and other floors of the high-rise were reserved for medical offices. It’s impossible not to notice the original brass elevators and marble floors that invite you to the large open-air lobby. This interior was vacant for two decades until it was renovated and restored to its former glory\, featuring stunning Art Deco pillars and zig-zag motifs replicated in the original color scheme.  \nSince 2013\, Hilton Garden Inn takes over the entire building with a modest bar\, Monroe’s\, on the ground floor with lounge and cocktail seating. Monroe’s offers a full-service bar menu and a place for guests to relax and unwind. In addition to some tasty beverages\, we also serve a selection of upscale bar-food ranging from burgers and wings to tacos and salad. \nDETAILS \nDATE: Saturday\, September 20\, 2025 \nTIME: 6:00pm – 8:30pm – you are welcome to stay later! \nLOCATION: Hilton Garden Inn\, Downtown Phoenix: 15 E Monroe St\, Phoenix\, AZ 85004 \nPARKING: All guests are responsible for their parking accommodations.

If these stools could talk\, they would tell tales about how hard the young newspaper boy worked to earn 10 cents for an old-fashioned malt and of the many & regulars that purchased their Burma-Shave or Prince Albert (in a can) here. Now\, MacAlpine’s remains the community’s favorite neighborhood joint\, still serving up classic favorites like cherry phosphates and egg creams from behind their original soda fountain.

The Art Deco Society of New York is spending this year focusing on the Art Deco Style’s exuberance\, hope\, and modernity\, as it defined the interwar years in much of the West\, as societies navigated boom and bust\, revolution and retrenchment\, optimism and despair. \nJoin the celebration when the Art Deco Society of New York partners with our friends at Greenwich Village Preservation for this special free event with its Executive Director\, Andrew Berman. He will take a look back at the roots of this design aesthetic\, which grew out of revolutionary 19th and early 20th century movements\, and examine how it transformed New York City\, from skyline landmarks to humble neighborhood infill developments. Then he’ll zoom in on Greenwich Village\, the East Village\, and NoHo\, and take a closer look at the many stunning and surprising examples of the style in our neighborhoods\, ranging from prominent and beloved monuments to overlooked workaday structures\, with a few prisons\, parking garages\, and post offices in between — both surviving and long gone. He’ll look at where and why Art Deco proliferated in our neighborhoods\, as well as where and why it surprisingly sometimes didn’t. \nAbout the Speaker:  \nAndrew Berman has been Executive Director of Village Preservation since 2002. Andrew is an architectural historian and lifelong New Yorker who worked on development and preservation issues in Greenwich Village\, Lower Manhattan\, and the West Side for more than three decades. The first years of his life were spent in an Art Deco apartment building on the Grand Concourse in the Bronx not too far from where ADSNY’s President\, Roberta Nusim\, grew up. \n  \nRegistration: \nHow to Register for ADSNY’s Web-based programs: \n\nGo to the event website HERE \nClick the gold  Register  button located to the left of the “About the Program” section\nEnter the requested information in the registration form and follow the instructions to pay online and complete your registration\nIn a few moments\, your registration confirmation containing your link and unique password to watch the video event will be sent to the email address you used to register.

SUMMARY:Vitrual Event ADSLA: Jewelry from the 1925 Paris Exposition
DESCRIPTION:Phoenix Art Deco Society Members are invited to attend virtual events from other Art Deco Societies around the country. The Art Deco Society of Los Angeles is not offering an ICADS discount for this virtual event.  \nLa Grace et L’Elegance du Gout Francais: The Jewelry of the 1925 Paris Exposition \nAbout the Program: \nOur celebration of the centennial of the Art Deco style continues with a reprise of the lecture that Lisa Schoening gave in person\, in June. The broadcast will be live\, not a recording of her earlier talk. \nThe organizers of the 1925 Exposition des Arts Decoratifs et Industriels Modernes invited renowned Paris jewelers Cartier\, Boucheron\, and Georges Fouquet among others to bring their most modern creations to the Exposition. Representing nearly a decade’s worth of painstaking work\, these jewels showcased the determination of French jewelry designers to join their compatriots in all areas of consumer manufacturing in bringing a new language of design to life. \nFor six months visitors to the 1925 Paris Exposition had the opportunity to see exhibits from the most celebrated jewelers in their Pavilions in the center of Paris. \nAbout the Speaker:  \nLisa Schoening has been enamoured with jewels since childhood\, and had the great good fortune to have spent much of her career teaching both the science of gems and the history of jewelry for the Gemological Institute of America and the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising in Los Angeles. She has spoken on jewelry history for the Art Deco Society of Los Angeles\, the Gia Alumni Association\, and the Womens Jewelry Association\, and for thirty years has dragged her friends through any number of jewelry stores\, auction houses\, and museum exhibits in search of small sparkly objects of extraordinary value. \n  \nRegistration: \nHow to Register for ADSLA’s Web-based programs: \n\nGo to the event website HERE \nClick the green ticket link\nWhen asked to sign in\, select guest check out\, the option at the bottom.\nComplete your billing information\nNext: Assign yourself to the ticket in your cart\nComplete check out\n\n

SUMMARY:LAST CHANCE Highrises: The Luhrs Legacy and Southwestern Art Deco Influence
DESCRIPTION:Discover the details of towering Jazz Age gems as you’ve never seen them before with digital artist Chris Hytha and skyscraper historian Mark Houser. The Phoenix Art Deco Society is proud to bring to our community this unique exhibit hosted inside the historic Luhrs Tower.  \nFor the entire month of May\, come see us inside the Art Deco Luhrs Tower to view Chris Hytha and Mark Houser’s traveling exhibit showcasing curated pieces from their collection that highlight southwestern influence on Art Deco design paired with a history exhibit on the Luhrs family and the history of Phoenix in the 1920s and 1930s.  Also\, learn about the history of Art Deco design and how it impacted more than the architecture of the 1920s and 1930s with examples of fashion\, industrial design\, music\, and more. \n  \nGeneral Admission tickets can be used for any date/time. \nBuy now	\n			\n  \n  \nABOUT THE HIGHRISES EXHIBIT:\nThe Highrises Collection showcases drone-scan images of nearly 200 skyscrapers from across the United States. The prosperity of early 20th-century America resulted in a boom of skyscrapers that still tower over cities across the country today. Focusing on the character and craftsmanship on display at the top of these landmark buildings in a way that can’t be seen from street level\, the Highrises Collection reveals fascinating details and stories of these distinctly American icons. \nThe Phoenix exhibit features several of Hytha’s artistic renderings of iconic Art Deco highrises and Art Deco gems that are influenced by Hispanic\, Indigenous\, and Spanish design from across the country.

So\, join us as we celebrate the holiday season with a special look back at toys of the Deco era with our guide from the National Museum. \nToys\, like other material culture\, are reflections of the larger society in which they were created. While crafted for children\, toys were most often purchased for them by adults\, and it is not surprising that adults would seek toys that reflected the popular style of the period. While a parent may not be able to afford a home in the Art Deco style\, providing a dollhouse version of this to a child may have helped to fill that void for the adult. \nArtists who work in the fine-scale miniature movement look to the past for inspiration. When the Museum’s co-founder Barbara Marshall commissioned an artwork from British artists Kevin Mulvaney and Susie Rogers\, they chose multiple architectural models from the 1930s to create a magnificent Art Deco Jewelry Store (2011). Chris Toledo’s Art Deco Bathroom (2022) is one of many designed by the Los Angeles native to preserve the distinctive architecture of the period at a time when many of the actual bathrooms are disappearing due to remodeling or demolition. \nJoin Amy McKune\, Curator / Senior Manager of Collections\, for an in-depth look at some of these Art Deco-inspired treasures from the collection. \nCan’t join us at the time of the live Zoom event ? No problem! Those who register will receive a recording of the entire program a few days after the live presentation. When you sign up for the program you have the opportunity to watch\, or rewatch\, the recording at a time more convenient for you. \nAbout the Speaker:  \nAmy McKune (she/her)\, Curator / Senior Manager of Collections\, has been with The National Museum of Toys and Miniatures since 2017.
