Meow Wolf's Summer Workshops!

The David Loughridge Learning Center is your home for education and free-choice artmaking at Meow Wolf Santa Fe. Most days visitors can pop by and make art from 11am-4pm and there's no charge to make art with us during Open Studio hours.

Meow's Wolf's Summer Programming is in full effect at the Learning Center!

In honor of David, we have unveiled many free weekly programs, such as Open Studio, a choice-based art studio for all ages. There's also a fun support group for addictions called Resources, Triggers, Cravings & the Meaning of Life.

What's more, we're hosting many instructors throughout the summer who are offering invaluable, creative skills to the community in paid workshops. Roni Rohr, a Golden Apple Award winning art instructor, will be teaching Steampunk Art in June and Old School Graffiti Art in July.

Also in June, virtual reality teacher and artist Bjørn Parramoure will work with participants using a variety of creative software tools, culminating in the presentation of a co-created VR environment.

Our intention at the Learning Center is simple: Continue to offer a space for the radical inclusivity of the community's creative energy to express itself.
