We’re off to visit the 1927 Greystone Mansion, a 46,000 square foot, $3.1 million Gordon B. Kaufmann designed estate with panoramic views stretching from downtown to the Pacific Ocean, hand carved oak balustrades and rafters, five chimneys each designed and crafted by a different artist, a movie theatre, a bowling alley and a hidden prohibition era bar. And did we mention that the Doheny’s Hearst Castle of Southern California is also associated with an unsolved murder-suicide and scandal?

The Art Deco Society of Los Angeles presents a two day vintage marketplace focused on authentic and reproduction men’s and women’s apparel and accessories 1920 - 1960 to wear at ADSLA’s signature event, the Avalon Ball! Several seminars and demonstrations will also take place during the weekend ($36 seminar ticket) or just come to shop. Tickets for shopping at the Bazaar are valid for BOTH Saturday & Sunday. The ticket will say March 28, but can be used both days if you leave your wristband on.

Now in its 23rd year, the 2026 Avalon Ball is a fantastic journey into the past when Big Bands played for huge audiences which were broadcast to the nation in the Art Deco Casino Ballroom built in 1929 and located in the city of Avalon on Catalina Island. This magical night features an evening of dancing to music from the 1920s and the 1930s. Immerse yourself in glorious Deco opulence gliding across the 10,000 square foot dance floor surrounded by romantic ocean views. Tickets go on sale on December 6, 2025.

Guests at the Avalon Ball have the option of purchasing a standard dining room style table or a cocktail table at the event. These are in limited supply. If you purchase a table, you and all of your guests also need a ticket to the event.
