Let’s Get Cookin

20th Anniversary

Why It Matters

For 20 years, Let’s Get Cookin’ has brought together Atlantic City’s culinary talent, community leaders, and supporters for one unforgettable night in support of local youth. What began as Men R Cookin’ has grown into one of the Club’s signature fundraising traditions celebrating flavor, fellowship, and impact.

This milestone anniversary honors two decades of generosity while raising critical funds to power academic enrichment, workforce pathways, STEAM innovation, and safe spaces for the young people we serve.

Guests will enjoy tastings from more than 50 amateur and professional chefs, live entertainment, and meaningful opportunities to invest in the next generation.

Twenty years of flavor. One unwavering mission.

STEAM FAIR 2026

A Byte of 8-Bit

Chelsea Club | March 26th @ 4pm 

Teen Center & Drexel Club | March 27th @ 4pm

Why It Matters

Innovation takes center stage at our Annual STEAM Fair — a two-day celebration of student creativity, problem-solving, and technical skill.

Members from Chelsea Club, Drexel Club, and the Teen Center showcase hands-on projects across robotics, coding, drone education, 3D design and printing, clean energy engineering, and visual arts—including student painting and design work that brings the “A” in STEAM to life. Families, partners, and community members are invited to see what happens when young people are given access to tools, mentorship, and the freedom to explore big ideas.

At BGCAC, we don’t just teach STEAM — we build confidence, competence, and career pathways.
