Meow Wolf, Artist collective in Santa Fe, United States
Meow Wolf is an artist collective and entertainment company in Santa Fe that creates room-filling installations where visitors walk through surreal scenarios. The exhibitions connect painted walls, sculptures, light, and sound into coherent worlds that exist parallel to everyday reality.
A group of artists founded the collective in 2008, initially as a loose collaboration for shared projects. Writer George R.R. Martin later financed the purchase of a former bowling alley, where the first permanent installation opened.
The spaces combine art with music and performance, so visitors become part of the stories themselves. Each installation invites you to touch objects, open doors, and discover hidden details.
The exhibitions allow visitors to explore at their own pace and choose their own paths through the rooms. Those sensitive to flickering lights or loud sounds should check ahead, as some areas offer intense sensory input.
The name comes from the first meeting, when the founders drew two words from a hat. The collective now operates five locations in different cities, each with its own theme and design.
