What is Bingo/Tango?
Second Tuesday of the month, 6 - 8 pm; The MCA adds an interesting twist to the classic game of Bingo by integrating both quirky art and tango components. Host Jason Pickleman calls bingo numbers and players may learn to tango with professional Argentine Tango dance instructors Somer Surgit and Agape Pappas between games. Bingo games are based on the shapes of artworks currently on view. www.mcachicago.org
