The Edwards Harris Pavilion is the hub of the Palm Springs Art Museum's exploration of architecture and design. The building, purchased by the museum in 2011, is a classic mid-century International style structure designed by E. Stewart Williams in 1961 as the Santa Fe Federal Savings and Loan. The 13,000 square-foot glass and steel building is elevated above street level, and the glass pavilion features floor-to-ceiling windows that perfectly frame the cityscape and the surrounding San Jacinto Mountains. The main level features gallery space, includes offices, and a store located in and around the bank vault, which retains its original door. The lower level includes a study center with meeting space, archive and collection spaces, archivist office, and a library.
