Meow Wolf lays off 165, including employees at Denver’s Convergence Station

Meow Wolf, the arts and entertainment company that opened a Denver outpost in 2021, will lay off 165 employees company-wide, according to an internal memo, even as it moves forward with plans to launch a new location in Texas. In a note to staff sent Monday, Meow Wolf CEO Jose Tolosa said the cuts will include 111 employees across the company’s exhibitions and corporate team, as well as 54 bargaining unit positions at Las Vegas’s Omega Mart. Officials at Meow Wolf didn’t immediately respond to questions about the number of Denver employees who will be affected, but said in the statement that the actions will cut expenses by 10%. The company, based in Santa Fe, has scaled up rapidly in recent years as it expanded its surreal, interactive sculptures and installations to multiple locations in Las Vegas, Denver and other planned markets. Meow Wolf officials are actively negotiating with the employee union as there is no collective bargaining agreement in place, Tolosa wrote in the memo.
