When planning our visit in SLC, it was my wife's idea to check out Dreamscapes. You can either purchase tickets online or in person. I thought it was best to purchase in person, just in case we were late and not knowing how the parking would effect our arrival. Luckily there was parking near there, but only paid $3.50 an hr to park, so might as well. I figured it may take us about an hour to explore Dreamscapes. I saw the sign in the front of there store to scan and purchase tickets on your phone. The lady when over a few rules and procedure. We really had a fun and enjoyable time filled with laughter. The creativity and unique concept gave each room an amazing experience. Plenty of photo ops you could think of which made it interesting. If you have a weird but artistic imagination, I believe you will enjoy Dreamscapes. read more

Dreamscapes is a really creative and unique concept, like a haunted house without the scares, full of winding rooms and unexpected moments. With its strong emphasis on recycling and reuse, some parts do feel a bit like a large-scale craft project, but there's still plenty of charm, wonder, and imagination throughout. Visiting with the Salt Lake Connect Pass made it an especially worthwhile experience. read more

Amazing experience, and value. They also sell a lot of local art that's cool. Reminds me of meow wolf. read more

Dreamscapes is a really cool experience EVERYWHERE except for the SLC location, which unfortunately gives all of the others a bad name. It has some cool things to see, but certainly not enough for the money. When we walked in, we were super excited. There was art to see, the ticket counter people seemed nice, we walked around, only to find that a LOT of the art was super rude, definitely not kid-friendly, and then they had a whole table of anti-mormon stuff (and don't get me wrong, I'm for everyone having their own opinion, but right there? As the FACE of your business???) Then the guide at the beginning. We told him we didn't have a lot of time and would rather start right away, and instead of getting right into the safety brief, he gave us a ten-minute political speech, INSULTED everyone there, and finished off with his own anti-mormon jokes. Which, you know, I'm sure slap to most crowds in SLC, but we just found it in poor taste. Believe what you want. That's fine. But as a precedence to a safety briefing? A hate speech? I just... it was so unprofessional, it was a waste of time, and then the art dissapoints. No shade on Dreamscapes. Go anywhere else. Just not in SLC. read more

Dreamscape describes this experience perfectly. From the moment you walk in, you will see the magical art installations, along with mystical, and sometimes haunting music, as you walk through the talents of a variety of artists you will come to see is a mind blowing visual/auditory sensory experience for sure. Every display (decor) creates a unique world, perfect for losing yourself for an afternoon in a truly unique, and immersive experience. Dreamscapes is moving to a new location April 1st and located in The Shops at South Town in Sandy with new and bigger exhibits. Don't miss out being transported into the talents of our local artists. read more

Dreamscapes is AMAZING but it is being taken over by the Rio Salt Lake soccer team. I guess they need a place to put a practice rink and whatever else. Dreamscapes has the creativity and artistic energy from local artists and collaborators that make this such an amazing experience. It's currently in the Southtown mall but I know they will most likely be relocated due to being booted out by Rio Salt Lake. Check it out while you still can! read more

Their first location was amazing and each room had its own theme and experience. The second one was good as well and more space to make each area unique and had its own story. This third location just feels like a mosh posh of a bunch of different things and there's no clear flow which I think made the first two better. I think they've lost the essence of what dreamscapes is and is focusing on an adult/kid playground If you've never been to dreamscapes it'll be a unique experience. But for seasoned visitors, you'll be disappointed read more

Going to this was very disappointing, I went to the original location and was excited to see a new one. This was so sloppy and thrown together, honestly felt gross. Waste of money read more

It'll take about 1-1.5hours to get through the whole exhibit. It's definitely worth the price you pay to get a lot of great photos and step into each creative space. We went as a group of 7 and we eventually all split up and came out at different times due to stop and staying in one section long. read more

Super fun and incredibly unique! Loved spending the night doing something different. Do you remember those Eye Spy books you'd look at as a kid? Well, imagine diving headfirst into one of the pages and this is what you'd find. It's busy and artistic and I felt very enlightened after leaving. (It also helped that I took a Creative Arts class in my undergraduate schooling so I could truly appreciate and understand everything going on). But honestly, it's an incredibly unique art exhibition (art experience?) and I'd recommend everyone go at least once. The artists give a fun perspective on "random everyday items" and there is a lot to interact with. Take your time going through and enjoy a new scene, have fun in the heart of SLC and go outside your comfort zone! I mean, you don't ALWAYS need to spend your Friday night watching Netflix. TIPS & TRICKS: * Park in the north lot and head out across the intersection, it's located just east of Dave and Busters. * Take some time to read some of the tags within the exhibit (you'll understand what I'm talking about when you get there) it's fun to read other's thoughts. Some are thought provoking... others are, um, less inspiring... read more

Everything displayed is either donated, recycled, or once trashed. Its like you're walking through someone's dreams and trying to understand what's going on. Some of the materials that they repurpose are amazingly done and you'll have to see it for yourself. You start going as a small group and once you enter the initial room, you can go in at your own pace. There's hand sanitizers throughout the "maze" especially around the writing areas. Definitely an opportunity for photos, but they want you to wear a mask. Located at the gateway, it's a quick and easy date night or family adventure. There's a few restaurants in the gateway with hall pass being next door to make it fun and convenient. read more

Um... wow. Just wow. Went here for a double date and it was incredible. They said it was a 60-90 min walk through... we did it in 135 and could have easily stayed longer. Every room was so beautiful and thought through, and we even got to meet one of the artists! This is a great place to go to support and appreciate incredible local artists, and be engrossed by the dreamworld they have created. Highly recommend for all ages. There is a great storyline for kids and so many details for adults. Highly highly recommend. read more

Fun weird way to spend an hour or two. The exhibit was wild and fascinating. Then the local art available was also quality and we ended up walking out with a new painting. Weird but in a great way read more

While I was strolling around The Gateway, this huge, rather spectacular shopping/dining/lifestyle complex, in Salt Lake City, I came across this cool, little museum (if you can call it that?). Supposedly all the artwork had been created using recycled products from neighborhood businesses. I was just curious to see what this was about, so decided to pay the $15 fee to enter. They were practicing Covid measures, from mask wearing to socially distanced touring...though as to be expected, that got a bit slack here and there. Thanks to medical connections, I was fortunate enough to be double vaccinated weeks ago, so I felt somewhat safe going through all of their rooms/spaces. However, not sure if I would have done this otherwise. Well, turns out this is indeed somewhat of a museum, yet like its name, each room creates a magical, dreamlike setting. Looking back at the walk-through experience, as well as looking at some pics taken by others from Yelp, it reminded me of this Japanese artist, Kusama's, artistic vision. In fact, the infinity-inspired mirrors and the polka dot/art paint set-ups are very Kusama-esque, if not a copy of her work. Anyway, the recycled artworks were impressive...and some of the rooms were cool, though some were kinda young and cheesy. I thought it would have been much better and more dreamlike if there was some cool overhead music. However, it was just dead silence...and all you heard were people talking as they walked through. THIS is where I thought this place failed miserably. Why not at least TRY to create a dreamlike ambiance...with music to set the mood? Such an obvious miss... at least to me. Unfortunately, the experience wasn't quite a dreamlike escape for me, but somewhat entertaining nevertheless. I guess it's worth going through this at least once for just $15 at that...if only to get some quirky pictures as memento, or for Instagramming. I took a ton of pics myself...though most of them turned out badly lol. read more

It was fun and most of the rooms were pretty interesting. I absolutely love the idea of using supplies that would otherwise go to the landfill. I found some of the rooms to lack interaction and weren't really for me. Others were captivating. The price is quite high for kids tickets. read more

Here's the low down: We go through a lot of stuff in this country. We use it up. We leave it behind. We throw it away. What if someone took that stuff, and then repurposed it into art? And what if that art was not just on display to look at, but was on display to walk through? What if you didn't see it, but you experienced it? That's pretty much the problem and question that Dreamscapes set out to address. Located inside the Gateway, it's a social media snapshot dream: a winding, twisting space full of upcycled art. It's not fancy--don't come expecting some precious, pink thing celebrating desserts or kittens. No, it's the culmination of dozens of artists sifting through old Salt Palace display leftovers or shuttered toy store materials. Go with an open mind and see what light, secrets, fluffy clouds, crystal caverns, and even participate in the making of art by adding colored stickers to a room that once was all white. Originally slated to be temporary, it now has an indefinite stand in The Gateway. It's gaining some attention as a model of art meets responsible living, and hopefully they can keep improving it and refining it so that everyone can come back for a new experience. Oh, and the folks running it are the nicest! read more

It's a cool little spot to see some art and some pop ups. I went here for Utah Canna and had a blast. Ended up buying myself a mushroom grow kit while I was there. They always have cool events here, go check it out. read more

Amazing rainy day ( or any day) activity! Super fun for all ages. Went in with my husband and brother in law and I have to be honest, this place was a highlight of our trip. Would recommend arriving earlier and checking out their bizarre bazaar before going in for your experience. Take your time! There is so much to see, touch, and overall immerse yourself in. read more

If you've heard of or experienced a Meow Wolf exhibit, this isn't too far off. But I appreciated the incredible detail in all the displays compared to the large-scale, less intimate experience you might get at Meow Wolf. You can tell that so much heart has been put into the pieces here. And although it's lower budget, it's a ton of fun. We loved all the different things you can interact with...light shows, out of tune pianos, and even a poetry creator. Highly recommend all around!! read more

Imagine every art project you've ever done merging with some of your most psychedelic dreams... in real life. Now imagine being in a room with no clear exit and when you do find your way out, you're faced with another artistic challenge. This is Dreamscapes. Some rooms are dark, others are bright. Some are interactive and others are just for observation. But all of them tell a story or portray a feeling from the artist. It was very well done and fun for the creative and non-creative attendees. Be sure to take lots of pictures and take time to enjoy the work. Lots of people put a great deal of effort into it. read more

"It was ok". I'm glad I got my entrance for here with the Visit Salt Lake Connect Pass. It's got some neat areas but overall it's pretty underwhelming. Pricey for what it is, I feel like it's mostly due to location. I love art and funky stuff, but this was just kinda meh for me. For little kids, it was a bit creepy. Everything is recycled and repurposed. It's a one-time visit kinda place. We were there less than hour. read more

We liked this artsy location. It is unique and there are plenty of opportunities for pictures. It is self paced but they have time slots you need to reserve so you'll be around about 30 other people. My kids were reluctant to come with us but since it was my wife and my birthday we used that as leverage, a parent win this time. The kids ended up loving it and they thought it would be fun to bring their friends back and get pictures rather than hanging out with lame parents. I did see quite a few groups of teenagers so it is good for all ages. read more

Super fun and interactive! Had a ton of fun here! You can walk around with each section and basically have the hour to do whatever on your own time. We originally selected a 6 o'clock ticket time but someone emailed me saying they messed up with a private booking at that same time. They were quick to correct the issue and change our ticket time to earlier and make it an easy change. Super friendly staff and everything was clean! read more

Super cool outing! It's located in South Town mall so don't let that throw you off, you're in the right place. Just at the top of the escalator. The exhibit is very psychadelic type of art, similar to Meow Wolf but local artists. Affordable price my ticket was $15 I'm glad I went it was inspired! read more

A fascinating, fun and exciting activity to do while in the mall. Definitely takes you for a ride with the presentation, atmosphere and creative use of materials. The vibe and art demonstrated a multitude of passion and surrealness that encompasses the local talent. Definitely worth to enjoy for a couple of hours and to take pictures. Recommend being present and really being open to the themes presented. read more

This place was lit as fuck! As you can see we were mad faded and it was a great time.... I don't think I would rather spend an hour of my day anywhere else. Except maybe at a cool music studio or Something but that's besides the point honestly just a random thought lol... it was hard to find it was on the other end of the mall then it said on maps so it's cool to be able to practice patience before entering the magic world of art!! Overall the best experience of my life the art is so dope and it's so cool to see people out together something so dope like this you should give it a try... #faded #there was a ball pit!!! read more

Lots of fun and thought-provoking! Sometimes a little too childish for adults, but otherwise a fun activity!

If you haven't been to Dreamscapes lately, or heaven forbid you haven't been AT ALL, we highly recommend attending this beautiful art experience! There was so much more to see since the last time we attended and once again we were mesmerized by all the coolness around us. You enter their 14,000 square foot space and journey through the immersive art that has been created by 50 local artists with reclaimed materials. It is so gratifying to see things that would have ended up in a landfill displayed in such creative and imaginative ways. If you are looking for an fun date night or a place to take the kids, this is the place to go! read more

I heard about this cool art pop up for two weeks at the Gateway, I missed the breakfast one they did so I had to make my way here! We had a girls day planned and I thought this would be a unique and fun thing we all could go do! It was about $15 for a ticket and they mentioned when we went that if they got enough visitors they would keep the instillation around for longer than two weeks! (I believe they met this goal and are still up and going?) The encourage you play with the art! Not many museums do so hearing that was exciting. You can climb, take pictures and become the art! There are many photo opportunities, a ball pit, an area for kids to play, a magic fairy forest a room that was once white but once you enter they give you colorful stickers to place anywhere your heart desires. I felt like a kid again jumping around in the ball pit. You start by going into this escape room and have to find your way to the exhibit, it's exciting. The exhibit itself isn't very long, took about 30 minutes to go through, but you can stay and play as long as you wish. Many instagramable moments here! Definitely worth the visit. read more

It's always amazing to witness how creative human mind can be and manifests itself in most unconventional ways. I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to the 'DREAMSCAPES'. From the beginning till the end it was a maze of colorful expression and re - imagination. It gives you an opportunity to simply expand your mind and inspires you to be creative yourself. The colors, glow lights, shapes etc, EVERYWHERE can't help but make you more happy and playful. I also enjoyed chatting, joking, and laughing along with staff as well. I am always happy to see happy folks at such an happy place. (That ACTUALLY has to be most favorite part) 'Dreamscape' also is a philanthropic entity which is my 2nd most favorite aspect, because you can NEVER GO WRONG with giving back. It's definitely a well kept immersive art experience. It's a WAS a GOOD EXPERIENCE. read more
