    "Meow Wolf" | With Emily Montoya and Vince Kadlubek

    "Meow Wolf" | With Emily Montoya and Vince Kadlubek

    Today we have 2 of the co-founders of Meow Wolf on the show!



    Meow Wolf is a unique art collective that started as a small group of artists in Santa Fe, New Mexico, dumpster diving for materials and creating immersive art installations in temporary spaces. Over the years, the group grew and evolved into a permanent business, creating an immersive art empire that has captivated audiences around the world.



    We explore the origins of Meow Wolf and how they grew from a small group of artists to a massive art collective that spans multiple locations and has hundreds of employees.



    We also learn about the unique culture of Santa Fe and how it attracts artists and creatives from around the world. We delve into the psyche of the city and explore why it has become a hub for fringe thinkers, psychonauts, and transients.
