PechaKucha Dubuque is excited to announce our next event at The Smokestack, March 30th at 7 pm. PechaKucha Dubuque features a series of presentations, each consisting of 20 slides shown for 20 seconds each, totaling a talking time of 6 minutes, 40 seconds. The goal is to foster a community that shares their unique stories and to provide a space for creative minds to come together for a night of inspiration, networking, and fun.
Presentations over the years at other PechaKucha Nights have included everything from design, art, volunteering, family vacations, medical illness, music, and technology; with the youngest presenter from Dubuque at eight years old and five years old (about summer camp), and the oldest in their 70s.
PechaKucha, literally translates as “chit chat” in Japanese, and was created by Klein Dytham architecture in Tokyo in 2003 as an opportunity for young designers to meet, network, and show their work in public. It is now a massive, international program, with events happening in more than 250 cities around the world.
Food and drink will be available at the event to purchase. This event is free and open to the public.
