What an incredible day at the 37th Annual Real Men Cook! ❤️🍽️

Thank you to everyone who stopped by, shared a meal, connected with neighbors, and celebrated the strength of our community. Events like Real Men Cook remind us that food brings people together—but it's the people who make the day unforgettable.

ChiShorties was honored to be part of this amazing tradition, sharing our mission to inspire the next generation of filmmakers, photographers, podcasters, and digital storytellers on Chicago's South Side.

A special thank you to the organizers, volunteers, chefs, families, and everyone who visited our table. Your support helps us continue creating opportunities for young people to learn, create, and tell their stories.

We look forward to seeing you again soon. Until then, let's keep building community, one story—and one meal—at a time.

📸 If you attended, share your favorite photos in the comments and tag ChiShorties!

Instead, we will be at the Bud Billikin Parade from 10 am - 4 pm. We heard and listened! Let's go! ChiShorties is excited to announce that we'll be participating in the Bud Billiken Parade, celebrating Chicago's youth, education, culture, and community!

If you're attending the parade, be sure to look for us! We'll be celebrating the creativity, talent, and voices of the next generation of filmmakers, photographers, podcasters, and storytellers from Chicago's South Side.

See you at the parade! 💙📸🎥

See you there.
