NEXT EVENT

2012

Schedule TBA

2011 was a banner year of programming at Center Portion, featuring the Mayoral Tutorial, a screening of indie film, Waste Land, and the Holiday concerts with The Crooked Mouth, just to name a few. We are still putting together this year's schedule, and look forward to hosting original writing and performance in our Logan Square space. 

There is plenty going on elsewhere in Chicago, and here are a few things Sheila Donohue recommends checking out:

Rhino Fest

Hunchback Opera

Chiditarod

shopping cart race for charity

Center Portion served as the headquarters for team Big Pain in the Nissima, as they prepared for this urban Iditarod through the streets of Chicago. They welded, painted and crash tested their shopping carts in our studio space, and gathered over 2 tons (yes, tons!) of food for the 2009 Chiditarod's charity of choice, The Chicago Anti-Hunger Foundation.


Since this team is made up of professional sailors, the rainy conditions on race day did nothing to dampen their spirits. In addition to collecting more food on their own than the entire tally for the 2008 Chiditarod, Big Pain in the Nissima won the race, as well as taking home the trophies for Best Sabotage and SuperBonusChallenge.
