Every holiday season we get in the spirit by welcoming our friend Gnorm to the lobby. Not one to shy away from the spotlight, you can often find him taking pictures around the hotel and bar. But his favorite thing is posing for pictures with his friends.
The indoor bar and patio will be open to the public as usual on Thursday, September 23, from 4 to 10 p.m. The indoor bar will be closed to the general public, with patio service only for non-hotel guests, on Friday and Saturday, September 24-25, from 2 p.m. to midnight. Sunday hours will return to normal.
The Modern hosted travel writer Drew Beattie who, like all our favorite guests, has an unexpected passion. Beattie’s passion? Those icons of America’s late, great road-trip culture: the independently owned hotel.
The Modern was thrilled to host Christopher Swain as he prepared to embark on a singular journey that is part environmental defense act, part performance art, part awareness-raising campaign.
The progressive dinner experience, including dance, live music, and film, is structured around the story of five central figures— four rabbits and a hare.
Now in its sixth season, Campfire Stories began on the patio at The Modern and quickly became a sell-out favorite feature of summer in Boise. The event expanded and moved to Txikiteo last year; all 2019 Campfire Stories evenings take place on the patio at Txikiteo, with writers and storytellers from all genres telling tales loosely organized around a theme.
Post Modern by artist Rachel Reichert will be unveiled this coming First Thursday, June 6th, the latest in the Modern’s Infinite Scroll series. The work was created specifically for the Boise hotel.
Joshy Soul, whose Treefort fans lined a full city block this past March, is bringing their retro-infused soul-pop band to the patio at Txikiteo, Wednesday, June 5th, from 7-8 p.m.
As the days get shorter and we start our slow descent into fall, Indian Creek Winery in Kuna offers a last chance to soak up a sunny summer vibe at the Hermit Music Festival, August 30th through September 3rd.
It’s impossible to talk about the Hermit Music Festival without talking about Lucas Hicks, wizard performer, composer, instructor and square-dance caller who was a central part of the Hermit Fest.
