Totally underwhelming, unnecessary, and nothing new. Still, we spent 90 minutes, and, to be fair, we wondered if Meow Wolf is like heroin, and fans try to get that "first hit" feeling that will never come. But, to borrow from my Santa Fe review: Meow Wolf is the love child of a Choose Your Own Adventure Picture Book mixed with a carnival funhouse maze, and is to art what food trucks are to food.

Overall, it was a pretty good experience, visually compelling, a beautiful entry way, a nice gift shop and amazing staff.

Before the class starts, one of the staff will discuss the vision behind House of Shine and ways to get involved. They have a yearly rotating exhibit with interactive activities throughout the space. Amanda the founder of DFW Junk Journaling Club was our instructor. Amanda provided information on junk journaling, showed examples through her own journals, provided supplies and answered any questions we had. The journaling classes are low cost ($10) and they have ample parking available on site. We were encouraged to bring our own supplies for junk journaling which includes receipts, stickers, pictures, cards etc. The class was casual and you could come and go as you pleased. There are meetups throughout the year for those interested in junk journaling discussed on their Instagram page or on linktree. I left the class inspired and look forward to expanding my creativity through journaling. I look forward to attending another journaling class in May.

It's worth a visit when passing the time away waiting for your flight. There are tables and charging stations. It has an interactive photo booth as well as a digital archive.

There have been a few times that my gate has changed-at the last minute of course-and I've almost lost my breath shuttling to the opposite side of the airport to board my plane in time. Now I know why! This, however, was the first time my gate was located in Terminal D. Lo and behold, there were even MORE dining options but what instantly caught my eye and held my attention was the "Coca-Cola Around the World Experience." It's a Coca-Cola MUSEUM in DFW airport. I happen to enjoy quirky installations in unexpected places, and this one showcases everything from an interactive photo booth to a curated collection of vintage Coke memorabilia and even a digital archives explorer. Check it out and "Share a Coke!"

Parking, so this is in the mall so you're gonna expect to find the same parking.You're going to find with mall parking. What to see: so this place is deceiving when we first walked in. I kind of thought it was going to be a scamp and I was pleased to see that there was multiple different fish tanks and they seemed like they were all in good repair. There was a turtle area as well. That I thought was pretty cool but only half worked. Anyway, we were having a good time and it was not very crowded.But there was one family that just allowed three screaming.Children to go through and we had to wait in order to let them get far enough ahead because of how disruptive they were. The one gripe I would say is the staff didn't seem to care even though the signs on all the fish tanks indicate to be quiet and not do flashes with cameras... Facilities: they had a gift shop which wasn't too expensive.But we did not end up buying anything, and we did need to use the bathroom upstairs.They were kind enough to let us back in when my son realized a second that we walked outside that he had to go potty. Anyway overall I'm glad that we went.

The gallery itself is well lit, welcoming, and provides quite a bit to look at. The single staff member offered help, which we didn't need (we were just looking) and he was not pushy or invasive. If you are looking for some serious Texas art, or just a gazer like us, Great American West is recommended!

Crowded and expensive, for not much…read more It could have been that it was during the holidays and the Polar Express train had recently arrived, but there were no seats, it was super crowded with people taking up tables without eating anything. We were there for a variety of choices for lunch, mistake I guess! We ordered from 3 different places. The food is really expensive (like a theme park) for what it is. It's slightly better than fast food, but is definitely meant for a captive audience. This is no Legacy Hall. The plus is the building is beautiful, fresh and new. It was beautifully decorated for Christmas and felt like it was MEANT for Christmas holiday decorations. So... if only for that, I recommend doing the Polar Express train and ending with hot cocoa (or a drink) here.

There is a section where you can see an old kiln and the process of painting porcelain plates too. The curator was friendly and nice to talk to as well. If I recall they do have some classes and teachers that come by and some new kilns in the back room. If you love to learn about older art forms check this place out.
