Pack up for a Palm Springs Pride lark where you’ll be in iconic company. Our friends — the legendary queer art advocates and leather daddies of Tom of Finland Foundation — are teaming up with us to bring you TOM’s Weekend at Ace Hotel & Swim Club, happening Nov 4–6.
Tom of Finland Store’s poolside pop-up begins Friday, Nov 4 at the Clubhouse. The shop will showcase our limited-edition line of Tom of Finland fun, plus a collection of art from the foundation’s orbit and some coveted past collabs from their universe — including Honey Fucking Dijon, JW Anderson, Happy Hour Skateboards and more.
Friday’s festivities launch with San Francisco-based hyper-pop party FAKE and GAY setting the mood with afternoon poolside sets from DJs Adam Kraft, Casey MQ, Saturn and Ah-Mer-Ah-Su .
Once the sun dips below the San Jacintos, head to TOM’s Lounge at the Amigo Room for radical rave rhythms from LA’s favorite house collective TUNNEL with sound selection by DJs Oza, Palma, and Sevyn. TOM’s Lounge will feature a menu of cocktails curated for Pride, and $1 of every drink sold goes right to Tom of Finland Foundation. Drink your part, uphold the legacy of queer art.
