PechaKucha returns
DIVERSE subjects from tall ships to rodeo queens will feature at the next PechaKucha night on Friday 30 August at the Atherton Hotel.
Presenters ranging from teens to octogenarians will use the PechaKucha formula of 20 slides for 20 seconds each to showcase their interests and passions. Their subjects will include monkeys, bees, circus and travel.
This fast-paced, visual storytelling platform has been going strong since 2003, originating in Japan and now exploding in popularity to over 1200 cities around the world.
This community event is a great opportunity for everyone from the well-seasoned speaker to the complete novice.
“It’s wonderful to see such variety, talent and experience coming from the Atherton Tablelands,” PechaKucha volunteer Mary Frances de Jourdan said.
“We’re always looking for presenters, so please get in touch via the PechaKucha Atherton FB page if you would like to share your story.”
Tickets are available online through Humanitix (https://events.humanitix.com/pechakucha-atherton-volume-8)
The event starts at 7pm and ends at 9.30pm. Entry costs $10 (kids at school free). Tickets are also available at the door. For more information email pechakuchaatherton@gmail.com
