Looptopia

Looptopia is a Chicago based arts and culture celebration, and it looks like fun. :)

"LOOPTOPIA - FRIDAY, MAY 2, 2008 - DOWNTOWN CHICAGO - 5PM TO 7AM
Come rain or come shine Looptopia will illuminate Chicago's most historic neighborhood known worldwide as 'the Loop'. Showcasing some of the best and most dynamic of Chicago's artistic and cultural communities, Looptopia's 14 hours of programming will conclude on the morning of May 3rd with a Sunrise Celebration in Millennium Park."--http://www.looptopia.com

It's the oldest all night cultural event in the US.

"Looptopia was the first all-night cultural celebration in the United States, modeling itself after similar events in Europe." --http://www.looptopia.org

Ooo this looks good too:

"This year, Looptopia hosts the first day of the Around the Coyote Spring Festival, which runs May 2-4. Check out nine hours of music at the Fine Arts Building and multimedia art displays (including video shorts) throughout the fest."--Center Stage Chicago
