On May 28th — that’s this Wednes­day night — PechaKucha returns to Welling­ton for it’s sec­ond Welling­ton out­ing.

All you need to do for a great night out is head out to The­New­Dowse at 45 Laings Rd in Low­er Hutt.

PechaKucha WellingtonPechaKucha Night is an event in which pre­sen­ters give brief pre­sen­ta­tions about a top­ic of their choos­ing accom­pa­nied by 20 images, each of which is shown for 20 sec­onds — giv­ing a total pre­sen­ta­tion time of 6 min­utes 40 sec­onds.

Doors open at 7.30 pm and the whole thing kicks off at 8.20pm. The bar is run­ning all night, so you get to hang with great peo­ple, hear about some inspi­ra­tional stuff and have some fun, all at the same time.
