The Nevada Museum of Art (NMA) is the oldest cultural institution in the state of Nevada. Founded in 1931 as the Nevada Art Gallery, the organization provides a forum for community visual arts activities, exhibitions, and artists. The museum's exhibits change frequently, so there's always something new to experience.

See our founder's world-famous antique car collection! The collection features more than 200 stunning cars, including James Dean’s 1949 Mercury from Rebel Without a Cause, and many more.

Nestled in the Sierras at 8,250 feet above sea level, is the highest of any ski resort at the lake, Mt. Rose Ski Tahoe features almost 1,000 acres with nearly 1,500 vertical feet of bowls, trees and glades to complement the splendid views of Lake Tahoe and the opposing Nevada desert.

Squaw Valley enjoys ample sunshine, 450 inches of average annual snowfall and open bowl terrain so expansive that locals are still trying to name it all!
