The progressive genius of Indian basketry, the unstoppable growth of manifest destiny, 18,000 stainless steel pins, and 205,000 fortune cookies all have one thing in common: They all fill in the collage that makes up Lake Tahoe’s fascinating history. The Nevada Museum of Art exhibit, Tahoe: A Visual History, is painstakingly compiled from the work of 175 artists over a period of 200 years.
