Ladies and gentlemen: Start...your...engines!!Travel back in time when automobiles exuted the sophistication, luxury, and streamlined design of the 1920s and 1930s. Even better, step into the actual cars to see what it was like in the driver's seat!
Phoenix Art Deco Society members are invited to join us for this special Art Deco automobile tour at the Martin Auto Museum.
An expert guide (and fellow Art Deco Society member) with Martin Auto Museum has hand-picked several art deco cars to highlight the evolution of the automobile and its design in the Art Deco era, relating it to other mediums of decorative arts in the 1920s and 1930s. Art deco elements in these automobiles can be found in architecture, fashion, industrial design, and more. Learn about these marvels of engineering and art!
***Vintage attire is strongly encouraged!***
Unlike other museums, you can even step into these cars to see what it would have been like in the driver’s seat (and take some great photos)!
After the tour, guests are encouraged to walk around the rest of the museum to experience cars from every era. Museum volunteers and guides can answer any question you may have on the collection. Each of these special cars has a story to tell.
The Martin Auto Museum has over 170 vehicles, including classic cars, hot rods, customs, imports, and much more. It also has one of the largest collections of auto memorabilia, antique gas pumps, and signage anywhere! Whether you are a car expert or know nothing about them, this event is for you.
Your discounted tickets will get you entry into the museum, access to our curated Art Deco Society tour, and access to the entire museum for as long as you wish. One could definitely spend the entire afternoon admiring their many exhibits.
Event is for Phoenix Art Deco Society members! Not yet a member? Join us: https://www.phoenixartdeco.org/become-a-member/
