Amazing experience! I took myself on a “self date” here and had a blast! The artist have added so many fun details to each installation and the word game you can play well going through makes you really pay attention to detail. I absolutely will be bringing my friends and coming back!

This experience is FAR better than Meowwolf! Why? Lets start with its from local artists from right here in Colorado. The money spent here goes right back into artists hands here in our state. Next, this art installation has challenging but achievable side missions. Its not some elaborate maze you have to catch every single detal from 6 rooms ago and anothe floor up. You can take your time with the exhibit and the experience and not feel rushed to gloss over something that catches your eye. The experience was like what I imagined visiting Wonderland would be like. Nothing is what it seems! I purchaed the special glasses (theres 2 options available) but I wasnt a fan of them. There are upgrades to the experience available, we just did the genral admission option and had a blast. Theres an extensive art gallery in the lobby and if tiny art is you jam....this is the spot you need to be. So much cute inspiration on all kinds of mediums. Parking isblimited to the street but its not impossible. The exhibit is open rain, snur or shine so plan accordingly.

What an incredible experience! The storyline was so much fun to follow. I could have spent hours there just taking in all the beautiful details of the exhibits. Gilly was so much fun to hangout and cheer us on as we solved the puzzles! 10/10 if you’re in Denver you do not want to miss out on this experience!

SUCH an amazing exhibit/space. They tailored the experience for our students and everything was phenomenal. The art was very unique and I loved that there was a “mission”/goal to complete throughout the immersive experience. The humans who worked there and curated this beautiful exhibit were SO kind and accommodating. You have to check it out for sure, you will not be disappointed! Thank you for everything!
