Mid-Century 21

You opportunists should get ready for the most shameful steal of your life. Our constipated housing market is prairie-dogging the dump of the decade, and you should be at the ready, pooper-scooper and shady real estate agent at hand. Once you get your cheapskate paws on the new pad, try laundering your dirty tactics by incorporating some sophistication. Learn how at the fourth annual Modern Phoenix Home Expo.

The free expo is a collaboration between SMoCA and the Modern Phoenix Neighborhood Network. It includes speakers who’ll school your ignorant ass about the preservation of mid-century designs across the Valley, plus specialty products and service providers so you won’t eff your property’s value when you make renovations. Get even more ideas from an exhibition of redesigns by students from the Art Institute of Phoenix. If all of this doesn’t cause architectural overload, there are numerous ticketed lectures and workshops, as well as tours of the Hotel Valley Ho on Saturday and the tract homes of Scottsdale’s Village Grove on Sunday.
