InCUBATE, the Institute for Community Understanding Between Art and The Everyday, has put together a quirky set of events to generate a dialogue about the 2016 Olympic Games under a guise of their own: The Unlympics. In cooperation with person-in-residence Anne Elizabeth Moore, the Unlympics will begin with Opening Day Ceremonies on January 24 at the InCUBATE space (2129 North Rockwell) and continue every Saturday until February 14. Competitions include events in Class-Conscious Kickball, Fashion, Karaoke, Live Action Role Play Family Dinner, Dry Humping, Spelling and many more. “My fiancée and I will also be entering the Official Unlympics Valentine’s Day Karaoke Competition at No Coast as a duet,” says Matthew Joynt, Chicago Unlympics Events Coordinator. “I don’t want to give too much away. I can, however, guarantee coordinated dancing and puff paint.”
