MUKBANG: A Community Dinner in Honor of APIDA Heritage Month

For Spring 2020, the Asian, Pacific Islander, Desi American (APIDA) Cultural Center will be hosting MUKBANG, a monthly dialogue series that takes place the second Tuesday of each month via Zoom. Mukbang, or known as eating show, became popular in South Korea in 2010, is an online audiovisual broadcast, in which a host eats food while interacting with the audience.

It’s no secret of how much we value food. Food feeds our soul, connects us to diaspora and is a form of community. Our culturally salient food maps who we are, where we come from and what happened to us along the way. In collaboration with students, campus departments, student organizations and/ or community members of Chicago, these series touch on understanding history, culture and/ or issues pertinent in the Asian, Asian American and Pacific Islander community through food. Bring your dinner and join us in conversation online.

Join us for our Community Dinner in honor of APIDA Heritage Month. Bring your dinner and join in community, conversation and laughter.
