Visitors to four popular recreation sites managed by the Forest Service Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit (LTBMU) will be greeted with a surprise when they step into the restroom facilities. Instead of blank walls, people will find murals painted by local artists through a project led by LTBMU and Tahoe Fund.
Five local artists were selected based on the creativity of their submissions. Artist Ian Scott did the artwork in two Stateline Lookout restrooms in Crystal Bay, Nev. Talia Koval and Michael Passaretti painted a mural that was designed by Koval in the Logan Shoals Vista Point restroom on the East Shore. Artists Cyan Samone and Alyssa Cumpton each painted a mural in the Big Meadow Trailhead restroom in South Lake Tahoe. Charlotte Castillo was selected to paint murals in two restrooms at Sawmill Pond in Meyers. | tahoefund.org
