Chicago ONSCREEN – Chicago Park District Event

CHICAGO PARK DISTRICT SERIES

Now an annual staple, The Chicago Onscreen Local Film Showcase returns each summer with a new lineup of some of the most exciting work the Chicago filmmaking community has to offer. Over the course of our eight seasons, the Chicago Park District is proud to have presented 134 locally-made and Chicago-focused films in dozens of parks across the city.

The idea for the Chicago Onscreen Local Film Showcase began to germinate in the summer of 2013, with an experiment. For the first time ever, Movies in the Parks patrons in West Chatham were treated to a locally-produced film telling stories from their own neighborhood. Building on the success and promise of that experiment, the festival came to life in 2014, growing from one film in one park to 15 exciting new local films in 6 parks throughout Chicago. Since that inaugural season, we have continued to expand and refine the Chicago Onscreen Local Film Showcase – reaching new neighborhoods and innovating new programming – while continuing to feature and support local filmmakers from all over the city and at every point in their career.
