Alter your perspective of local and global issues by peering through the lens offered by established and emerging artists with Desert X, a free art exhibition that spans the entire Coachella Valley with art installations dotting key locations from Morongo Valley to the Salton Sea. With pieces featured both in the elements and the great indoors, the concept of Desert X aims to give visitors a different view of the valley through the creative works of these talented artists.

Start your journey at Desert X Hub at Ace Hotel and Swim Club, where you can snag a map, swag, and chat with Desert X volunteers and staff to learn more about the concept. Bus tours are also offered, ticket required, if you want a guided tour of the installations. For those looking to adventure independently, most installations are open sunrise to sundown, with the exception of a few. Check the website for the full list so you can plan your route accordingly.

With a burgeoning arts scene in the Coachella Valley, this is a groundbreaking and innovative concept that highlights the unique venue that is the Southern California desert.
