This place was awesome it is small but has so much to offer especially if you Participate. It is pricey but I did enjoy it so I didn’t mind.My husband and I enjoyed it so much we wish we had more time to be MORE involved we had to move quickly because our babysitter had to be somewhere. Our 1st date sense March! We are Definitely going back !

Ingenious idea to rotate touring art installations through shopping malls and theaters! Invites the general public to experience contemporary art so they discover that art is fun, playful, and that their presence completes it. Fun for all ages, a romantic date, outing with friends or family, or by yourself. You come out enlightened and inspired. Definitely recommend this to anyone.

One star for having been treated very poorly by their staff. I would have gave 0 star but there’s no option for that. Very RUDE staff. Not recommending this place to anyone. Way overpriced and promo code didn’t work. Paid $135.00, 5 of us girls were very excited to see this place for the first time, only to be escorted (all of us) outside, right when we just started to explore, for the reason of taking off my mask for a second to take a picture. No refund of the money were given back. The staff at the front door never warned me or my friends about being asked to leave if you take off your mask for a second. She should/NEED VERBALLY TELL the customers about the consequences because a lot of people, like me, have trouble with their vision and can’t read clearly. Yes, there was a disclaimer about wearing masks and not being allowed to take it off etc. but couldn’t read because of my bad vision and I signed anyway. We should have been given warning because none of us were coughing or sick but were escorted out instead. Terrible experience!!! I will never ever mention to anyone that this place ever existed.

Was disappointed. Much smaller than I thought and most of the exhibits seemed pretty basic. Not worth the drive or money. The two stars are for friendly employees and good customer service.

I was under the impression that it would be a little more interactive than it actually was. They had some cool artwork, many of which you couldn’t touch or engage with, understandable. If you’re into modern art, this place is for you. If you’re a social influencer, you’ll love the backdrops some of the art will provide. I took my daughter with the intention of interacting more. Our visit turned out to be a lot of walking and watching. We went through the whole place once in about 20 min. We then revisited a couple of the areas we enjoyed and took some pictures to extend our visit. Total time spent: 40 min. The staff there were nice. Although one of the art pieces wasn’t functioning appropriately and some pieces flew on the ground near someone. A visitor picked them up and attempted to place them back, a staff member didn’t like that too much. She kindly but firmly told him not to touch anything and please let them know to fix it. Which I understand it’s better for staff members to deal with mishaps vs visitors but I couldn’t help but feel bad for the guy who had these pieces nearly flung at him by the self operating art piece only to get a friendly warning not to touch. Without spoiling too much, our fav part was the VR area. My daughter also enjoyed the “bamboo” and “cloud” rooms (my daughter’s references, not the actual names) Overall, it was nice but I probably won’t come again.

Gorgeous!! I had such a great time. What an innovative, awe-inspiring place! Ill definitely be back. The staff is friendly, curtious, and covid-conscious (theres hand sanitizer bottles and masks everywhere). I encourage anyone whos interested in art to go and have their mind blown.

Great place to review & expand your knowledge of modern art. The exhibit takes only about 1 hour. All kinds of shops and restaurants near by. Great day trip.

I have not officially been inside yet, but from looking outside in and checking out their website. This place is dope! Innovative, family fun, or a cool date. Theres something for everyone.

This was a fun art exhibit to visit. The VR experience was my favorite of them all but each exhibit had its 9wn appeal. I liked that visitors are limited right now and cant imagine going through this with a lot of people. I suggest spending time watching each exhibit as many if them run through sequences that would feel lacking if you dont stick through to the end. I would efibitely come back again and recommend to others. However, I will say that if I had to pay full price for the ticket (my daughter and I got teacher/student discount) then it might not feel as worth it. The full price is a bit expensive for the 1 hour experience.

This place is amazing. If you love art that you can experience, youll love Wonderspaces.The VR was particularly interesting. Theres two videos and the second one has you go on a guided tour with a magi through your own mind. Sounds trippy right? It is!The other installations ranged from thought provoking to emotional to creepy, and everywhere in between.I highly recommend it if youre looking for a good time with friends.

If your looking for an artistic space for a date, or a fun artistic spot to spend an hour, Wonderspaces is a good place to visit. They have a number of large exhibits on display. Many highly immersive visual and audio stimuli. I dont recommend for kids or seniors. Young hip, trendy, young people will enjoy the experience.

You can get lost in the amazing displays here. My friend and I went here and while it may be a bit pricey it is well worth it! Definitely try the VR experience!

Very entertaining place to spend a hour or more checking out the scenery. Always some good installations to Marvel at.They be alternating art pieces so it can be visited every few months for a new experience. Be sure to ask the attendants for nore details.

I waited quite a while to come here and the girl at the bar amped us up before we started exploring and we were expecting to see some amazing things, but we were extremely disappointed by the lack of rooms and creativity. Everything was mostly black and white. It felt bland. However, we did enjoy a couple of the rooms and the atmosphere was very welcoming, so giving an extra star based off of that and the convenience of the location (in a mall) alone.

Spent almost $60 for my kids and myself to go see the exhibit and barely spent 30 minutes inside. For the price I was expecting it to be more involved or even have more galleries than it did! The pictures I see online give this illusion that this location is very big. Most of the exhibits werent functioning when I went in which was sad because the rest that we did see werent too interactive. Overall I will not be planning on going back to this location. Id have a better experience finding a local interactive art museum or even go to the Phoenix or Scottsdale ones.

Wonderspaces is an immersive art experience with a variety of revolving exhibits. The pictures make for social media gems as guests explore the unique exhibits. My friends and I had purchased discount tickets several months ago, and Im so glad we did. I did not feel it would have been worth full price one bit. It was interesting and fun, but nowhere near as interesting as I had hoped it to be. Perhaps my expectations were too high or maybe all the pictures Ive seen capture the very best parts. Either way, its a fun way to spend an hour or two, but dont come with high expectations.

Way overpriced! Although the exhibits were interesting and thought-provoking, there are basically six rooms and even though we took our time, we were done in less than an hour. Should be $7-10 not $24 plus fees. Save your money or go visit SMoCA in Old Town.

The staff was extremely friendly and the delicious drinks made the whole experience very pleasant. The art exhibits were very interesting, especially the virtual reality. Highly recommend!

I wish I could give a much better rating! I was SO EXCITED that I was actually able to convince my husband to go and check out this art instillation with me. It was UNDERWHELMING in most ways, and the space was HOT, so much so that we actually were there for less than 30 minutes and literally ran through the exhibits (which look way cooler in photos than in person!) I actually gave an extra star because I appreciate art and do not want to diminish the creativity of the artists on display.All in all it was truly a waste of $50!

This was an ok experience. Im actually pretty disappointed with the price and size of this art exhibit. You are better off going to Phoenix Art Museum for the price and much more art and exhibits too look at. Also, I think they should promote that they are at Fashion Square mall. I had troubling finding this place.

WONDERSPACES : 1. This place is overpriced. Its smaller than most museums/spaces and are charging about the same or MORE. You should probably have more discounted options. 2. It was hard to find this place. Maybe add to your website or IVR that you need to park in the mall parking lot and walk through into the mall to find this place. It took us over an hr to find this place. Ending on a positive note, the staff were friendly and the art pieces were good.

Took a lot of their most popular installations away and only took like 30 mins to walk through when usually it would be a little over an hour. Costs a lot for what you get.

Wonderful exhibit and very creative! The talking plants exhibit was exceptional! Very friendly and EDUCATED STAFF!!! Thank you Brianna for such a great tour!!! their staff members available near each exhibit to provide explanations and help out with any questions.

I love this place and the art exhibits are wonderful and dreamy

This place was amazing!! My husband and I went for our 10 year Anniversary and had so much fun with the current exhibition. I love how they give a Military Discount as my husband is one and is currently in the Reserves after seven years AD. I cant wait for the next one!

Not bad, but just not worth the money in my opinion. I was expecting more of an experience and some of the exhibits fell a little flat for me. I did feel very safe with their social distancing, masking, and sanitation procedures.

We didnt give ourselves anywhere near enough time to enjoy this as much as we could have. I was really genuinely impressed! There were some pretty incredible, sizable, and surprising pieces on display, and bring able to interact with so many of them was really something else. The staff asked questions of us and about how we felt about pieces, and shared insight into the process the artists had when making their contribution. That was fantastic. Well definitely be back to spend some more time when we can.

I went in today for my birthday with my 5 year old son. And we watched a VR that was completely inappropriate for his age. The clerk took his temperature so i dont understand why she was not trained to warn me about this right then and there, and why the gentleman at the VR section who helped us with the headset didnt warn me either! There is a small plaque on the left wall, and thats it!! Thats my only shot at a warning which i certainly looked over as most average people would. I am disappointed the staff allowed this to happen without even giving me a fair warning. I am extremely upset that my 5-year old som had to go through that.

I had been wanting to check the point of view show out since I first saw people posting pictures on Instagram at it in front of Submergence, their light exhibit. I was so nervous I was going to miss this show since I had not been able to go all summer but Im so happy I finally got the opportunity to go yesterday because it was absolutely amazing! I loved learning more about all the different art pieces and I loved the fact that I could take pictures with all the different art pieces. I highly recommend it to anyone who is an art lover, and I definitely recommend seeing point of view before they are no longer doing showings!

It honestly was not worth how much they charge. I was expecting more in it. We spent around 15-20min in there and that was because the two VR movies took up most of the time. If it weren’t for the VR part you would probably finish in about 10 mins.

Fun place with interactive art. Great for adults on a date night.

It is simply ok. Wonder what it will be in a year

Lovely exhibits and very easy to go through, just wish their would have been more artists work displayed.

Forbes at the front of the house and his crew have manicured an incredible and accessible space. Whether your the type to walk around with your pinky out sipping your ironically or a with little ones you will be welcome here to wonder!

Super lame do NOT waste your time and especially do NOT waste your money. If I asked a 3 year old to make something creative, they would do a much better job.

This was such a unique experience, owlish they had one closer to home. The art was amazing and it was so innovative how you could interact and be fully immersive with the art!

So a friend and I thought it was gonna be more interactive, let’s just say we took acid and were still very under stimulated and yeah it was cool but not 30$ and an acid trip cool

A lot of fun! Great art exhibition

Keep hearing its very pricey for what it is. Disappointing as it looks like it could be a fun experience. Wont be wasting my money.

First time going! Was an an amazing day date! Must see if you like interactive art!

Loved every installment and the staff was wonderful... Also got sent a complimentary ticket to “gift” and we went back the next weekend with my 7 year old, who also loved everything! Can’t wait for the next one in October.. I would advise mayyybbbeee lowering the price $5 to make it more accessible for families but, we really enjoyed it nonetheless.

The photos on the advertisements make it look a lot bigger and I just didnt feel it was worth 55 bucks for 2 people

**Okay so getting here.. its in fashion square first floor of the food court by the restrooms, very convenient ***This place was WAYYYY TOO COOL! I literally enjoyed this so much. I love how its was a personal art experience from the virtual reality rooms , to the lights , and finding happiness in colors. Sorry I dont want to give it all away but this place is cool for the wonderers , leave a note before you leave too. Dont run through it either just wonder. The staff is very helpful and it makes the experience better cause they are just as excited to share this art with you as you are to be there.

Disappointing experience. Boring. You’re done in 15 mins. Don’t waste your money.

Had some questions before going in. Contacted them on Insta and on their website. Its been a week, stil no answer. It can get pretty crowded, but most people kept their masks on. Fun and interactive exhibits. Friendly staff. Id return, but only after Corona Season.

Nice little art place and great place to take pictures.We bought tickets online and we just signed a wavier and got a stamp on our hand and then went exploring.There is 2 virtually reality rooms. Theres a peaceful one and a dinner party one which is confusing but interesting.The string lights are my favorite. We literally took a photo shoot in there.When u enter a room theres no drinks allowed. There is a ledge where u can leave ur drink before entering.Theres a bar inside to get drinks and theres chairs around to sit down if your tired.

Absolutely amazing. The creativity and the design of each space was amazing. It took about an hour to walk through. My favorites were the fog room and the room with the hanging strands of light that responded to the music. Absolutely well thought out and presented in such a cool manner. Definitely worth a visit.

The installations here are always incredible and the employees are kind and knowledgeable. Theyre great at being sure youre aware of any pieces that may be harmful for the light sensitive and the layout is very well done. The scheduling is also super smart so its never too packed!

Very unique experience! I dont know how much Im aloud to talk about on here but definitely an experience you should try at least once. I love that you can even hang out inside after the walk through with out being rushed. Some of the most beautiful/unique displays and art Ive ever seen!

Was super fun and many things to see and play with. Great first date plans!Edit: Should definitely visit here every season since they love to change things up with new art work from many artists. These lights were our favorite and great for pictures

Amazing!! I loved it so much. Especially the VR experience!

Very interesting exhibitions.

Kat was a great bartender and Forbes was very friendly and helpful in guiding us through some of the exhibits.

Loved this place. Went for my birthday enjoyed a lot and did a dance in body painting space which i liked the most. Also, we can experience the virtual reality which are wonderful my first ever virtual experience loved it.

I got to go here on a first date!! It is truly spectacular, we even had to walk back through to revisit a few of my favorite pieces before leaving! I definitely recommend this place!! Its beyond your typical art museum with the interactive components and makes for an amazing IG story I cant share photos because everything I took was videos!! Super cool place, we will definitely be return customers.

Very interactive and cool place. They change parts of exhibitions from time to time, so there is a chance to see something different.

All I have to say is WOW. I was totally blown away by the new art at Wonderspaces, Elsewhere. The new collection was amazing, but more than that, I was just so glad that my whole team enjoyed themselves! I work for a local tech company in the Phoenix metro area and decided to do a team builder at Wonderspaces after their incredible exhibit, Point of View. We had a guided tour with Salem and they were absolutely incredible. I didn’t even know Wonderspaces did tours for groups! Salem was fun, charismatic and did a great job explaining each new work to us. We had an absolute blast.Again, thanks so much to the staff (especially Salem) for all of your help and guidance and just know, my team absolutely loved it. Their favorite pieces were Submergence 2.0 (GOOD call on the black walls!), Sewing Machine Orchestra, and Killing Time. Going to tell all the managers at work to take their teams to Wonderspaces. Y’all were great! 10/10 would recommend for any team builder, date, or anyone who wants to appreciate art in a digestible and accessible way.Wonderspaces and their staff are phenomenal!

Student tickets are $21, adults $25. 13 art exhibitions with cool photo opportunities. Takes about 1.5-2hours to get through. Drinks at the bar are also very good. The honey one and the hibiscus are my recommendations.

We visited the Point of View exhibit with a teenager. She thought it was the coolest thing shes ever seen. There were 13 installations, including two VR movies and a piece that allows you to create art with your body. $50 for the three of us. We were there for about 2.5 hours.Its located right beside the Theater in the food court.

Superb installations.. staff is very friendly and very helpful. Incredible ideas...It is inside a mall but the setting changes as soon as you enter. You have to pass through a busy food mall to get here. Its worth it. Must try!!

Wonderspaces is the perfect place to bring some friends or family members. Staff are helpful and friendly, walking you through each exhibit. Cant wait to see the next installation

This was pretty disappointing. Ive been to very similar pop up museums and comparatively this one was much less immersive. A lot of the peices felt extremely gimmicky. I would say if the price was closer to 5-7 dollars it would be fair.Update: To be fair, I think they took out a lot of the more hands on exhibits due to Covid19. I went because of some advertised exhibits that werent there and Im assuming they were taken out because they would make people stand too close together or people were more likely to touch them etc.

Could have been a bit cheaper as others have said or maybe more art. Also was hot. Location- park by kona grill, walk down into mall food court and it will be to your left or west. Possibly more explanation on some exhibits would have been nice also. Very Covid safe which is appreciated. At one exhibit some took a while to take many pics which I understand but maybe allow others to enjoy if you see them waiting because you can circle back and theres no time limit on how long you can be in wonderspaces which is nice. Might come back for another exhibit.

Closed right now but intriguing

Had a lot of fun with the kids. It was a great way to get the kids involved in art. They enjoyed the exhibits. Us adults had fun playing with them too.

Super find!! It was beautiful and interactive. The employees were very helpful and insightful. They answered our questions, helped with the exhibits, and were all around friendly. The exhibits were beautifully arranged and thought provoking. Would certainly return!!

One of the best art exhibits Ive been too! Friendly staff, nice location in Fashion Square, open and fun gallery. The theme of the exhibit was unique and the artwork mediums were broad and exciting, making you explore new methods of observation and engagement. It was truly an enlightening and powerful exhibit. Fun date activity or family event!

The best art and human experience you will ever have.

Interesting modern art. Different point of view for art. Spent almost and hour looking and most are hands on interactive.

Very awesome exhibit! #PointOfView I cant wait for the next one!

I loved the experience,but I somehow thought there would be more things to see.I especially liked the Virtual Reality with the dinner and the dog on the boat.They had aome pretty awesome stuff to see and experience

Just loved everything about this place and look going to more pop ups ! Amazing art and interactive experiences

Had a lot of fun. Good for young and old.

This place is incredible! I went here with my best friend while in town visiting family. The dinner party, transition and religious experience were especially impactful to me. Will definitely be back. Great for a day with friends, families or a date. Loved it!

We saw the Elsewhere installations. Very cool experience. Each exhibit was pretty interactive and unique. Some exhibits were ok but still quite creative. We enjoyed our experience, even my 4 year old daughter had fun! Theres a drink and snack bar too which I thought was nice.

Excellence in execution. Was very accommodating and easy to work with. The exhibits were very fun and thought provoking. I highly recommend this activity.

Went in there not knowing what to expect but this place exceeded expectations and I had a blast... Must check out if you are in the area. Had a good time there

We were only there for about 25 mins, we were only amused by the changing natures on two walls... everything else was very uninteresting..The yellow glowing room wasn’t even glowing, it looked like trash bags formed as a room basically... It was not worth the price. They have A LOT of space that could have more.

Spend your money on something else. This place was such a joke lol you can walk through the whole thing in about 10 minutes.

Great collaboration, fun and beauty all in one spot. Great for kids and adults!

What a great place! The interactive art work is really fun to experience! New exhibits every few months so I will definitely go back! More suited for ages 15 and up. Not a huge place so anyone whos not able to do a lot of walking can still enjoy all that is offered here! Employees were very enthusiastic about sharing their knowledge!

Very cool interactive art!

One of my favorite places to take my kids . Always have fun.

Amazingly curated displays of immersive, interactive, thought provoking art. Very unique space that anyone can appreciate.

Absolutely amazing!

This was an amazing experience. Take as long as you want in each exhibit and enjoy the different displays. Highly recommend this to anyone.

I had no idea this was a quarterly rotating art show and I highly recommend it! I came in with the impression it was similar to the Ice Cream Museum but it’s definitely different. 100% percent ‘gramable, but a very sensory experience between large scale pieces and VR items. Reasonable price and they also have annual memberships for the rotating series. I will definitely be going back with my husband and when their new show comes in!

Neat! Loved the experience. Especially appreciated the staff positioned at each exhibit to explain the artist and their perspective on each piece.

It is a good place to visit

It was amazing. 3 rooms really were amazing, with one really making me laugh and rethink things. Quite the journey. Great for a date.

Awesome experience, definitely recommended.They switch out the exhibits exhibits every 4 months or so, so there are new experiences ahead, allowing you to return a few times a year and not see the same things.I enjoyed it so much that I became a member here allowing visits throughout the year and early access to the exhibits. Plan on bringing my mom when she comes in a few weeks.Great date night idea as well.Drinks and snacks available for purchase as well.Most exhibits are interactive, however some you cannot touch, my recommendation would be for the owners to note this via a sign before entering each room.

I never imagined that I would ever be ever to experience something so unique & riveting. It reminded me of how Lavar from Reading Rainbow would instruct me to use my imagination. Each artist brings such creativity & finds art in household items. You have to come check it out & experience each piece of work for yourself. You wont regret it.

Loveddd this! Its fun, interactive! Virtual reality, confession wall, so much fun if you like art!

Absolutely amazing experience! I have recommended it to all my friends and will be returning to view it again. A++ experience.On another note, the staff was beyond accommodating and helpful. I attended Wonderspaces AZ with my medical alert service dog, and it was one of the most positive experiences I have ever had ANYWHERE. The staff ignored my service dog and only addressed me when speaking (no baby talk to my medical equipment, which we experience all-too-often daily). When I had a medical issue arise, they were able to recommend a safe place for me to recoup and for my service dog to perform her tasks.I have been to many museums, galleries, and venues, but nothing comes near Wonderspaces with regards to accommodation, content, and interactivity!

I went to Wonderspaces last night, and I am still thinking about it tonight! The installations vary from sculptures to VR, and they are all so great. The attendants were knowledgeable about each piece, and you can tell they are excited to share their knowledge which in turn gets you excited as well. I hear the installations are changing in a couple of months, so make sure you go soon!

Took my fiance here for her birthday and we loved it! There was just a ton of obscure art that we havent seen anywhere else. They had a couple of VR experiences that we werent huge fans of, but they were still pretty interesting. My favorite piece was the Religious Experience. Its a room that is completely blacked out except for a ton of tiny holes that have light coming out of them. Basically looks like an amazing night sky filled with billions of stars. Apparently the artist took 2 weeks to hand poke all the holes! Crazy! Just loved it. They also have a bar there so you can get a drink or snack while you enjoy all they have to offer. If you want a date thats fun and unique, check this place out.

I have lived in Phoenix for 20+ years and have never seen this kind of experience around the valley! Inside of Fashion Square, behind Jamba juice where the Harkins used to be in the food court is their location; there is a full service bar with snacks and beverages (alcoholic and non)! Some are interactive, some you can see from a distance and engage with, and then the two virtual reality experiences in my opinion make the price worth the experience. If $24 is too much to spend on an evening or weekend, look out for any promo days offered for discounts! It is a lot like a live gallery but the whole atmosphere is more laid back than that of a museum. There are guides posted at each space to explain and answer any questions needed. Due to the shows coming and going every quarter or so, there are yearly memberships being offered that do provide a lot for the price so if you like the idea of a place you can consistently visit for a nice evening out every few months, check out their memberships online!

Incredible! Make sure you sit through the VR and light/audio exhibits a few times! Wait until most people leave and sit on a bench for a whilw!

This was an awesome exhibit! Some of it may be a bit much for people with sensitivity to flashing lights, but it was all so unique!

We have kids ages 15,13, and 2. Even the big kids enjoyed it and the munchkin was so intrigued he fell asleep on the way home. Good family outing.
