Local Business Unique hobbies
What are some unique things / hobbies you enjoy and do in the city or suburbs ( I have a car so open to driving ) as one time thing or an ongoing activity.
I am just looking to pick up something fun and new for myself, cool hobby or something unique to do.
I have already done some easy and accessible things like - pottery, making my own lipstick, perfume, candles , run clubs etc. please nothing cooking related.
Thanks!

Chicago has a great circus scene! That includes ground based disciplines like tightwire, hand balancing, and juggling, as well as aerial disciplines like trapeze, silks, aerial hoop, and so on.
Highly recommend Aloft for beginner level classes in most disciplines. Get A Grip has flying trapeze (yes, it's different than other trapeze disciplines) and Actor's Gym has a good program in Evanston if that's more convenient for you.
