Meow Wolf – House of Eternal Return
Santa Fe, NM
An immersive art maze where a fridge door can lead into another dimension. Allow at least two hours.
Meow Wolf – House of Eternal Return in Santa Fe (New Mexico) is a walk-through art installation that opened in March 2016 in a former bowling alley (Silva Lanes) on Rufina Circle. The author George R. R. Martin helped fund the purchase and renovation of the building. At its center is a full-size Victorian house; the walk-through exhibition covers about 20,000 sq ft (1,900 m²).
The story is about a family that has vanished. Photos, objects and screens still switched on offer clues. Portals lead into other rooms: a fireplace opens into a crystal cave, a refrigerator into a long, bright corridor. More than 100 artists and helpers worked on it for about two years. There is no map, and you may touch and climb most of the objects. Allow plenty of time, and check ticket availability in advance.
