    HOOPcycle Play Session: Bulls Fest

    • United Center, 1901 W. Madison Street, Lot C, Chicago, IL 60612

    • Free

    Lace up your sneakers and and join us for a HOOPcycle Play Session at Bulls Fest!

    Conceptualized by artist Marisa Morán Jahn and architect Rafi Segal, HOOPcycle explores the intersections of recreational equity, cultural heritage, and public space. Drawing inspiration from both contemporary basketball and its ancient pre-Columbian ancestor, HOOPcycle combines a reinterpreted vertical hoop with a tricycle-mounted design, offering a reimagined sports experience that challenges norms and unites communities through play. 

    This activity is presented as part of Bulls Fest, happening August 23–24, 2025.
