Fresh Gallery Otara is proud to present…

This will be Fresh Gallery Otara‘s first outdoor Pecha Kucha so bring a jacket, in case it rains there will be an inside option but regardless Pecha Kucha will happen.

Pecha Kucha – which originated in Tokyo – is a unique, rapid-fire format in which each speaker shows 20 images, each for 20 seconds. With each presentation lasting just 6 minutes and 40 seconds, the audience experiences an exhilarating variety of ideas and projects. Pecha Kucha is fun, fast, information. It’s a mix of the old-fashioned slide show and public lecture – a great chance to interact with the local community, meet new people.
Pecha Kucha has spread virally to over 400 cities worldwide. The Southside editions of Pecha Kucha Nights are always very special in their regard for showcasing the ‘soul of the community’. So, be inspired and informed by creative people with a Manukau connection.You’ll hear from artists, architects, scientists, musicians and more.

Here is an example of a Pecha Kucha presentation that I have found on my interwebs search. This will give you an idea of what to expect from a Pecha Kucha Night event.
