About
Pecha Kucha nights are informal and fun gatherings where creative people get together and share their ideas, works, thoughts or holiday snaps. Pecha Kucha is a presentation style in which 20 slides are shown for 20 seconds each (6 minutes and 40 seconds in total). The format, which keeps presentations concise and fast-paced, powers multiple-speaker events called Pecha Kucha Nights (PKNs).
PechaKucha Night was devised in February 2003 by Klein-Dytham Architecture. Now, PKNs are held in over 1000 cities worldwide.

Organizer
Pecha Kucha Medicine Hat
Each PechaKucha Night is run by a city organizer. They are more like stewards, who look after the PechaKucha spirit in each city. All PKN organizers must have a regular day job and they run PechaKucha Nights only for the inspiration, love, and fun of it. They mostly come from the creative fields. The PKN organizer is usually supported by a big team of volunteers -- when it comes to putting on a PechaKucha Night, the more helping hands the better. The global PechaKucha network is organized and supported by Klein Dytham architecture.
