Creative Director

Dreamwalk was created by two dreamers: Ben McPherson, the artist, and John Pope, the entrepreneur.

John had been invited to be a background actor on Yellowstone Episode 1 through a casting director (thank you, Pyn Francisco!) when he met Ben. At the time, Ben had been entertaining investors for a groundbreaking new sci-fi film, and John was a successful entrepreneur exploring new industries. During discussions about the film, the conversation turned to Ben’s expertise in immersive entertainment and John’s lifelong dream of creating an innovative theme park. As the two pivoted to working on their vision for an indoor, immersive theme park, artist Brad Skaar soon joined the group, along with a team of talented artists and technicians.

Three years, many sleepless nights, and over 150,000 hours of craftsmanship later, we are proud to present Dreamwalk Park! Our vision is to continue developing the place where people of all ages can be transported to new worlds, enjoy tangible art, and new forms of entertainment. We thank you sincerely, in advance, for your support. Every ticket, every donation, every gift shop purchase, and every seasonal event will all help us grow the experience. As a family company, our primary goals are not measured in dollars, but in hours of quality time and enjoyment for our guests.
