PechaKucha night Providence

Announcing the 17th Pecha Kucha night in Providence, and to be co-hosted by outgoing hostess Stephanie Gerson and incoming host Michael Gazdacko! The theme is: scandalous & slanderous.

If you haven't yet heard of this global yet unpronounceable phenomenon, Pecha Kucha is a monthly format for sharing ideas, in which presenters are allotted 20 slides and 20 seconds per slide. Put simply: 6 ...minutes and 40 seconds of adult-style show & tell. It began in Tokyo in 2003, has since spread to over 300 cities worldwide, and first landed in Providence in March of 09.

***Doors open at 7:20, presentations start at 8:20, and shmoozing goes down throughout.***
