Sloomoo Institute

Sloomoo Institute

Slime enthusiasts! Sloomoo Institute in Soho is a sticky, silly mess of a time, and you will love every minute of it. At Sloomoo, you’ll make your own slime at their DIY Bar (including picking the type of slime, scent, color and 3 charms to go inside), play with numerous vats of slime, walk barefoot (!) in a slime obstacle course, check out a glow-in-the-dark slime cove... you get the idea. Not to mention, classes, workshops & the opportunity to meet famous slime creators are always a possibility. For the slime-obsessed, this experience really can’t be missed. Here’s a fun little Instagram Reel I made of our recent visit. I will say I don’t know if getting doused in slime is worth the added cost to ticket price (IMO), but it is fun to watch others undergo a slime shower!
