Truckee Art Haus & Cinema to break ground in 2018 as its Cultural District expands

The summer issue of our magazine celebrates Truckee and Grass Valley-Nevada City being named as state Cultural Districts by the California Arts Council. “Truckee is poised for further expansion that will enhance its Cultural District. The Truckee Railyard is a redevelopment project east of the historic downtown,” we write. “The mixed-income community for artists will include affordable rental apartments, a movie theater and an amphitheater for live performances. It will feature public art throughout the site.”

This morning, on Facebook, the Truckee Art Haus & Cinema announced it will break ground in 2018. “Last week the Truckee Town Council approved the development agreement for the Truckee Railyard project, the last public approval needed in order to start infrastructure work. We look forward to being in Truckee and part of the Railyard development.”

In Tahoe City,The Tahoe Art Haus & Cinema located in the former Cobblestone Cinema, is a completely remodeled theater and bar. The Art Haus shows major motion pictures, independent films, action sports films, and environmental movies, and also hosts filmmakers, speakers, dance performances, and live music.
