Pecha Kucha This Friday Night

I’ll be presenting on my Annals of the Former World project and my recent trip out West at this Friday night’s PechaKucha Midcoast Maine. The event will be at the Rockport Opera House — if you haven’t ever been to a PechaKucha talk, they tend to be very entertaining with a wide range of topics, each covered pretty quickly. Hope to see you there!

Here is the press release:

PechaKucha Midcoast will host an evening of visual storytelling Friday, January 31, at the Rockport Opera House, 6 Central Street. Doors will open at 6:30 p.m., the program will begin at 7:00. The snow date is Saturday, February 1, at 7 p.m. Tickets, $5 (cash), will be available at the door; a reception will follow the program.

PechaKucha (Japanese for “chit chat” and a registered trademark of PechaKucha, Inc.) features eight individuals who each share their work, ideas and creative process in a slideshow of 20 images for 20 seconds each.
