- Partnership of Placer County & Fox Cultural Hall
- Located at the Tahoe City Transit Center
- Goal is to beautify and highlight local businesses and important locations in North Lake Tahoe
- In partnership with Arts for the Schools, TBID funds generated by tourism supported the creation of two large-scale murals at the Truckee River Bridge in Tahoe City. The vibrant installations celebrate regional identity and were created by two female-led artist teams following an extensive public feedback process involving over 500 community members. “The Light,” by Frida Ticehurst, explores Lake Tahoe’s shifting light and local history. “A Dip Into the Truckee River Ecosystem,” by Bryn Merrell and Alex Bailey, highlights local watershed ecology.
- Will inspire thoughtfulness, appreciation and respect for the region
