Meow Wolf's Las Vegas Concept, Omega Mart, Is an Otherworldly Trip to the Store
Phoenix might not be getting its own Meow Wolf experience anytime soon, but there's now a new Meow Wolf even closer to the Valley than the Santa Fe, New Mexico, original.
Meow Wolf's Omega Mart concept opened in Las Vegas' Area 15 entertainment complex last week. The experience takes visitors inside a bonkers grocery store that offers multiple portals into a fantastic world full of sci-fi elements, art, and mysteries to explore.
Phoenix New Times got a look during the preview. Enjoy the ride.
