We are pleased you are interested in being a part of PechaKucha Night by lending your design chops to the cause.
PechaKucha Night was devised in Tokyo in 2003 as an event for young designers to meet, network, and show their work in public. It has turned into a worldwide celebration with events happening in hundreds of cities , inspiring creatives around the globe. Drawing it’s name from the Japanese term for ‘chit chat’, it rests on a presentation format that is based on a simple idea: 20 slides x 20 seconds each. It’s a format that makes presentations concise and keeps the evening moving at a rapid pace.
Presenters usually include some combination of the following - creative projects / artwork / graphic analysis / architecture / theater...but we are interested in anything presenters are excited about. Lots of folks do interesting things or work for creative companies but we want to know the story behind what it is that makes them tick and/or how it is relevant for us local Knoxvillians.
We generally have 200+ people in attendance. This event is a great way for the creative folks in Knoxville to network, show their work, and be inspired. PechaKucha Night Knoxville is organized by a coalition of volunteers.
After reviewing your application, we will be in touch if you are selected to design one of our event posters.
