The very first PechaKucha Night of 2011 was held on January 1, and it was Philadelphia’s honor to kick of the year with its Vol. 7. As organizer Bradley Peniston tells us, it was a huge night, spurred on by mentions of the event in the city’s two weekly newspapers — here’s a link to one of the them, in the Philadelphia Weekly.
“Perhaps because of that, there were an unusual number of new faces in the audience. Everyone seemed to love the presentation about using goats to maintain urban lots.” It’s certainly great to hear that a whole bunch of people were treated to their very first PKN experience, and here’s hoping they enjoyed it enough to come again.
Bradley also points us to a video of one of the presentations from that evening, on a new podcast series in the area called Talkadelphia.
