Six Years of Local Films in Local Parks
Since 2014, this Local Film Showcase has featured films made right here in Chicago in parks across the city. We're proud to support filmmakers working and creating in our city, and to enrich the Movies in the Parks program with hometown movies featuring, speaking to and relevant for Chicago.
Enjoy local films at home!
As we stay home to save lives, the Chicago Park District is pleased to offer you a collection of locally-made and Chicago-focused films from the Chicago Onscreen collection. Each week, from April 21-May 25, we'll share four or five films with you. They are free and available to watch at any time during the week.
