Five stars isn't enough for this gallery! My brother and I wandered in here in between supporting a…read morerunner at the Tahoe 200 Endurance Run. We were warmly greeted by one of the owners, Lisa, who quickly identified our connection to the race based on what we were wearing as we entered. She shared he had family members who had completed the race as well. She was so friendly and kind. Now to the gallery part. The entire place was decked out in Tahoe related art from photography to lacquered Tahoe-related wooden pieces, "Tahoe Fluid Art" by Megan Smith. Lisa was so excited to take us through a tour of everything she had on display. It seemed just as exciting for her to share the work as it was for us to see everything for the first time. Every piece unique and so beautiful. In my lifetime, I've wandered into countless galleries while being a visitor in town but this was the first time I absolutely could not leave without taking something home. Both my brother and I left with a Tahoe Fluid Art piece. For him, a mountain-shaped piece with gorgeous flecks of copper and fool's gold; for myself, a beautifully blue Lake Tahoe piece. These weren't exactly "bargains" (it's not a thrift store), but given how unique the pieces are and that they were created by a husband and wife team with completely different skills, the purchases were well worth the value and heart put into them. There's something to be said about "good" art. We all have our own taste, but when pieces make you feel and help you connect, it's truly something special. We found that here and recommend anyone who is in the area to stop on in for a look. Be prepared to take something home. Oh, they also ship artwork globally so don't hestitate to request that if you are unable to handcarry the artwork home! Trust me, it's so worth it!

The Neighborhood Center of the Arts is housed in what I'm guessing is an old hospital. Or a…read moresanitarium. It looks old and crazy, stale and, to use the parlance of fast food, melty. If it had teeth then they'd be about to drop off onto your head. The center has a wing on the far end (I don't know what other parts of the building are used for, but I've heard there's a glass studio). It's upstairs, and you can either take the stairs or the elevator. At the base of the stairs you'll see a series of totemic ceramics. Art lies ahead. The center is an expansive working art studio, as well as an open art gallery. The aim is to provide resources and art classes for adults with developmental disabilities. They work in many different mediums, including paint, photography, ceramics, weaving, computers, and pen and ink. Further information can be found on their website. They have a new exhibit every few months. Hours are 10am to 4pm. Until about 2pm the studio is active, with artists working, milling about, and attending classes. But visitors are free to step in and check out what's going on. Basically, this is my favorite gallery in the world. It's such a positive place, free of pretentions, and the work is great and presented well. The staff is very friendly, and the artists are nice and available to speak about their work. I (and my family) have a whole collection of art from here. Some of my favorite pieces that I own are from here. Once you walk inside, there are a few rooms walling the latest exhibition. Past that you get into the studio areas, where there is also more art to look at. Basically, every room has art on the walls. One time I was browsing some abstract religious icon paintings, and one of the artists came up to me and asked, "Hey, do you want to know what happened yesterday?" I said, "Yes." And he handed me the newspaper. Then walked off. Then I bought a piece of art -- a woodblock with an all-text Volvo advertisement printed on it, and sprawling on top of the text, in various mediums, are words and nonsense. My family and I recently invested in a huge painting, a collaborate effort by a few of the artists. It looks somewhat like a Basquiat. I highly recommend visiting the Neighborhood Center of the Arts. The artists produce amazing work, and it's very accessible, engaging, and enjoyable. The center does a wonderful job at cultivating their talents. A lot of care and hard work goes into the place, and their efforts are rightfully deserving of praise.

Our captain obviously enjoyed his volunteer job driving the most beautiful 1934 Chris Craft wooden boat around the lake - our ride actually lasted closer to 40 minutes and it was a blast. This has to be the best-kept secret around Tahoe. The rides are only offered on Sundays and you must make reservations in advance. The boat only holds 6 passengers, so for our party of 4, we ended up having it to ourselves. You pay for it at the museum and then walk 5 minutes down to the Obexers dock. Highly highly highly highly highly recommended!

The lady at the front was so friendly and talked to us a little about what was on display. However, we were done seeing everything in 10 minutes. There was a display and history on tattoos and some boats. Once you've seen it once you don't need to see it again. I would not go back here. I think they should change it up and add the history of Tahoe and what's been found in the lake and things like that. I think it would draw more people to come in.

I totally judged this "book" by it cover. And I was wrong…read more For months when I was going up and down South Virginia Street I have seen the Pixels & Ink sign. I thought it was a computer ink store. This weekend I was walking next to the storefront and some artwork caught my eye. So I decided to go in and get a closer look at the art. Now I have discovered there is much more to this space. I met the owner, Hunter, who explained the concept. One, the business copies and reproduces pieces for artists who want to sell their work or keep copies of their one of a kind artwork. Seems no almost no job is too big. He offers digital services, in house custom framing, photo reproductions, and fine art canvas & giclée printing. Two, the wall space acts as a small gallery. I had missed the opening night of Moon Cakes & Hungry Gods by local artist Carline Young. Three, there is a small retail space for select artists to sell in. For this space there is an online application to submit for consideration. There is a "to go" spot on Thoma for quick pick ups. As well as parking on Thoma and inside the Stix complex. Take a few minutes and checkout the always changing art displays and products for sale.
