    Faux Athletic Recreational Tournaments
    Washington, DC
    Faux Athletic Recreational Tournaments (FART) was formed in 2008 in order to foster a local sense of community by sponsoring interactive pseudo-sports tournaments and community outreach activities. The founders of this organization wanted to take a stance against the growing isolation amongst Americans documented in books such as Bowling Alone. By providing fully inclusive local activities it is the aim of FART to foster a sense of community. The focus of Faux Athletics is not simply because these are funnier to watch and participate in than â??realâ?? sports. Faux Athletics allow those of all abilities to be involved which is key to our mission.
