Pecha Kucha Night Philadelphia

Saturday, January 30, 7:30 p.m.

Save the date for the fourth spectacular edition of Philly Pecha Kucha (say peh-CHAK-cha), the rapidfire creative show-and-tell governed by a simple rule: show 20 slides, talk about each one for 20 seconds. Wired magazine calls it: “Say what you need to say in six minutes and 40 seconds of exquisitely matched words and images and then sit the hell down.” We call it an evening of fun, sociability, and a little learning thrown in.

Vol. 4 is Start It Up Night: tales from local folks who willed their dreams into reality, from cupcake trucks to public-access TV. Don’t miss it!

What’s Pecha Kucha? It’s the Japanese word for “chit-chat.” Want more info? See Philly Pecha Kucha, join the PPK Facebook group, or visit worldwide Pecha Kucha HQ in Tokyo. Devised by Tokyo architects Astrid Klein and Mark Dytham, Pecha Kucha events have been held in more than 265 cities.
