1. Pick a card
It’s the first Monday of the month, and that means you’re in for an evening of free, easy breezy bingo at the Boiler Room’s PBR Bingo night. Unwind with a chilly Pabst and a cheesy slice while trying your luck with some buds. (Boiler Room, 2210 N California Ave, 9pm. Free)
2. Guess who’s coming to improv
See one of iO’s long-running comedy staples at the Armando Diaz Experience, as a different monologist takes the stage each week to share personal stories that inspire the team of veterans in their hysterically funny scene. (iO Del Close Theatre, 1501 N Kingsbury St, 8pm. $12)
Get away from the hustle and bustle and retreat to an isolated location far, far away. Explore the remote Canadian Yukon and Russia’s Sakhalin Island through the lens of a Canadian artist at the Art Institute’s photography and film exhibit “David Hartt: Interval,” where you can embrace a sense of displacement. (Art Institute of Chicago, 111 S Michigan Ave, 10:30am–5pm. Included in museum admission)
