According to a spoiler-filled<\/strong> article in The Awl<\/a>, the Jejune Institute closes in early April.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Now, however, an end date has been assigned, and after a nearly three-year run it will be no longer after April 10, when the epilogue is completed.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Since the days are numbered, I’m going to key you in a little secret: you have to go. You just fucking HAVE TO. And here’s another little secret: although the Jejune Institute<\/a> appears to be some wacky new-age cult, it’s actually a game brought to you by Nonchalance<\/a> that’s merely disguised as a cult.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, it’s actually only the beginning of a series of games, and the cult is part of the storyline. No word on whether the remaining games will continue post-April 10th or not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s sad news for me, because the Jejune Institute was one of the most fun and innovative activities I’ve ever found in San Francisco: even more fun than getting high and watching bad movies at the Red Vic, or getting sunburned at Dolores Park while downing cheap beer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Jejune Institute is still open Tuesday through Saturday, noon-five, so get out there and enjoy it while you still can. Note that you’ll need approx one hour, about $1.25 and a cell phone. Wear comfortable shoes and if it looks like rain, bring an umbrella.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
