Talk of the Village Stage

Talk of the Village Stage

The Village at Squaw Valley will be host to a wide array of sustainable vendors, nonprofits, speakers, and activities for all ages throughout the weekend. The Talk of the Village stage will connect the local community directly with Visions Conference speakers, including artists, scientists, authors, and activists who are making a difference today. Local and regional vendors will showcase sustainable goods that celebrate the beautiful natural surroundings of Lake Tahoe.  Non-profits and green businesses will host booths and activities that reinforce the underlying themes of Creating Equilibrium.
