Art aficionados should check out the sculptures and galleries at the Ski Run Marina and the Tahoe Art League’s Showcase Gallery in the Ski Run Center.

Kora the Art Car will be parked at the Market, too. Kora is an '84 Jetta painted with a classic green chalkboard finish. She’s actually a National Art Project and visitors can draw on her chalkboard surfaces, tires, windows... basically everywhere! It's out-of-the-box, vibrantly colorful fun for everyone.
