PechaKucha Night returns to Huddersfield for an evening of thinking and drinking – with a twist…
In this special edition, Dirt Cheap Magazine takeover PechaKucha Huddersfield to curate and present an eclectic night of presentations and live music from passionate local artists. A celebration of the hidden (and not so hidden) talents of Huddersfield.
Since 2008 Dirt Cheap Magazine has been supporting and showcasing the work of creative practitioners from Huddersfield and beyond through the publication of e-zines, magazines and blogs. They also organise Fresh Kids – regular live music and interactive art / graffiti nights in Huddersfield and Leeds.
Huddersfield is participating in its own way in today’s Inspire Japan efforts with a lovely site that shows various video greetings — in the form of animated gifs — that really come off looking quite nice. The city also held its Vol. 4 two days ago, raising funds at that event — we covered it here.
Courtesy of a tweet by Tim Difford, here’s an Instagram shot of the PechaKucha in Huddersfield poster for last week’s Vol. 3 — he was announcing the fact that he would in fact be speaking about Instagram at the event (he runs through it in this post). So yes, do include the @pechakucha address when you tweet anything PK-related, it may end up here.
Just a reminder that tonight (January 13) is Hudderfield’s PechaKucha Night Vol. 3, happening at The Media Centre’s Cafe Ollo.
PechaKucha Night in Huddersfield Vol. 2 is just over a week away (September 23), and will take place at The Media Centre’s Café Ollo. You’ll find the list of presenters with links on the official event page. The terrific Viewmaster poster was designed by The Engine Room, who were also presenters are PKN Huddersfield Vol. 1.
PechaKucha Night debuts in Huddersfield later this month (June 24) at The Media Centre’s Cafe Ollo. You’ll find the full list of presenters with links on the official event page.
