PECHA KUCHA



A group of designers and graphic artists have been working to bring a fantastic event called Pecha Kucha Night here to Tacoma. The first PK Night is Wednesday June 3rd at the New Frontier Lounge and we would really appreciate your support. Please spread the word!

Pecha Kucha (peh-cha ka-cha) is the Japanese term for chit chat or the sound of conversation. The event is devised and shared by Klein Dytham architecture and was conceived in Japan in 2003 as a place for creative people to meet, network and show their work in public. Each presenter is allowed 20 images, 20 seconds per image, giving 6 minutes and 40 second for each presentation with no go back or pauses and definitely no do-overs. Pecha Kucha nights now takes place in 200 cities across the world!

Some of Tacoma’s creative finest are set to present at Tacoma’s first PK Night. Volume 01 celebrates our hometown, the Dusty Jewel, the City of Tacoma and those who influence it.
