Radio Tave’s story unfolds when ETNL, a well-loved community radio station, finds itself pulled into a realm between universes. Continuing their broadcast from this new locale, the radio team finds a new audience and a world bigger than they ever imagined.

Get ready to meet a cast of new characters, explore different realities, and enjoy delicious foods from the worlds’ favorite honky tonk dive, Cowboix Hevvven!

Continuing with the radio theme – music and sound play a big role in our fifth permanent exhibition in Houston, TX. 

“For Radio Tave specifically, we wanted to create something that expanded the worlds we’ve built in Dallas with The Real Unreal and Santa Fe with House of Eternal Return. Starting with the idea of a community radio station, we used sound – music, audio, voice and sonic energy – as the central theme, driving the story and shaping the participant’s experience…We’ve got some incredible interactives that transform how people experience sound — things you can play with and explore that are just as fun to listen to as they are to look at. It’s a true audiovisual feast.” – Susie Cowan, Meow Wolf Senior Creative Producer

Radio Tave features dozens of rooms, designed by more than 100 artists – over 50 of whom are based in Texas. Cowboix Hevvven, the honky-tonk inspired bar and restaurant features a jukebox offering 35 licensed songs by Texas artists.

They’ve taken it to the next level, capturing the city’s vibrancy in every corner of the experience. We can’t wait for you to step inside and explore it for yourself.” – Jose Tolosa, CEO of Meow Wolf
