Behind the Curtain

Step inside one of the world’s most expansive private collections of modern design at Rarify’s warehouse in Lebanon, PA—housed in a sprawling former Bethlehem Steel railroad spike factory. In partnership with Docomomo and AAPI Design Alliance, this exclusive event invites you to explore 80,000 square feet of Rarify's warehouse and showroom spaces, brimming with iconic works of 20th and 21st century design.

Rarify co-owner David Rosenwasser will lead a guided tour through the collection, spotlighting seminal pieces by Mira and George Nakashima, Ray and Charles Eames, Florence Knoll, Gae Aulenti, and many others who have shaped the trajectory of modern furniture history.

Along the way, Rosenwasser will share insights into the movements, makers, and cultural forces that defined the modernist ethos and continue to influence contemporary design today. Whether you're a designer, architect, collector, or enthusiast, this is a rare opportunity to encounter masterworks of design up close—within a setting that echoes the industrial innovation and craft at the heart of modernism itself. Take a look at Rarify's furniture featured on Apple TV's Severance.

This FREE event will take place on August 16th at 1pm, followed by a casual happy hour. RSVP Required.
