Pecha Kucha Night is Back in Manila!

This is a great night you don't want to miss! Following the success of the first Pecha Kucha Night in Manila, this second major event promises to be even bigger, better and definitely more fun!

So rush over to find the best seats in the house and soak in the most amazing ideas, stories and visual feasts at Pecha Kucha Night in Manila v2, to be held on December 9 (Wednesday), 7:30PM, at Cineplex 3, Shangri-La Plaza Mall, Mandaluyong City. Meet many of Manila's very interesting and exciting people as they share their expertise, reveal inspirations, and declare the things most important to them.

What began as a venue for young designers in Tokyo to present their work in public has now become a phenomenon in over 262 cities all over the world…and counting. With a unique presentation format of 20 images at 20 seconds per image, this evening socials/networking, and show-and-tell event is rocking major cities and islands from Bali, Copenhagen, Hong Kong, Honolulu, Lima, Chicago, Beirut, Quebec and more. Created by Klein Dytham Architects, Pecha Kucha Night will really lift you up and set your mind abuzz!

Be enthralled by the adventures of the Balangay Team, led by Captain Art Valdez, as they crisscross Philippine seas to get the word out on inspiration; lend your ears to the music of the creative and quirky fashion designer & singer Kate Torralba; learn ways of making better and more sustainable environmental choices with green architect Dan Lichauco and urban planner Karima Palafox; be led by writer & musician Lourd de Veyra as he reveals the word and shows you the way; open your mind to a different way of seeing the world through Jungian psychologist Rose Yenko; and raise your shirts to Pinoy pop culture prophets, design studio Team Manila.

Completing the line-up are creative duo Brandie Tan and Tin Sanchez of BBDO Guerrero, writer and comic creator Budjette Tan, DIY music producer Erick Fabian Sr., visual artist and pole dancer Christina Dy, photographer Gutsy Tuason, web developer and GO gamer Mikong Galero, One Tama, geekfight!
