About us
Meow Wolf is not your typical arts and entertainment company; they’re the creators of extraordinary, mind-bending experiences that transport millions of adventurers of all ages into breathtaking realms of imagination and wonder. As the proud recipients of numerous accolades, including Time Out's #1 Immersive Experience in the US (2023), Fast Company's World's 50 Most Innovative Companies (2022 and 2020), and USA Today's Top 10 Best Immersive Art Experiences (2022), Meow Wolf is committed to engaging curious seekers through the magic of discovery and play. They are distinct in their collaboration with hundreds of visionary artists who infuse creativity into every Meow Wolf experience. The journey began with the THEA Award-winning House Of Eternal Return in Santa Fe (2016), a mystery house with hidden passages and mesmerizing art exhibits. In Las Vegas, Omega Mart (2021) presented a surreal grocery store experience. Denver's Convergence Station (2021) appeared as a maximalist architectural marvel linking four alien worlds. In July 2023, Meow Wolf unveiled The Real Unreal in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, and plans to open a new location in Houston in 2024.

We're pleased as punch to reveal the first major immersive space within Meow Wolf Houston: Cowboix Hevvven, a real restaurant and bar inspired by the hole in the wall honky tonk dives and dance halls of Central Texas. “Cowboix” is spelled as such so that anyone can be a cowboix. And everyone, we mean every type of being in every type of existence, is here. Every night is Friday night at Cowboix Hevvven. We can't wait for y'all to see the real thing. Check out the exclusive interview with Sarah Cascone at artnet: https://lnkd.in/g9AVAMMR Credits: Created by Senior Artist and Cowboix, Cole Wilson, alongside a large team of production managers, fabricators, tech installers, CAD designers, and more that also helped make this all possible.
