Pecha Kucha is a series of powerpoint presentations focussed on art, design and architecture. It is unique in that each speaker has 20 slides and can only show them for 20 seconds each so each presentation only lasts 6 minutess. It is really stimulating with lots of variety.
Carol Brown will be presenting some of the stadium artworks and other Durban speakers will be showing their projects. There is a R10 donation requested per person at the door and a cash bar. It will be on Thursday 28th Jan at 6.30 for 7 at the Durban Art Gallery.
