Eight interesting stories on tap for Friday’s Pecha Kucha
By Medicine Hat News on June 7, 2018.
Medicine Hat News The second Pecha Kucha event of 2018 takes place Friday at Medalta, starting at the usual time of 8:20 p.m. Eight speakers are lined up to make presentations on topics about which they are passionate. The format is simple: The speaker presents 20 slides, and they automatically advance every 20 seconds. Says Pecha Kucha committee member Dawn Olson: “The result is always a feeling of connecting with other community members, learning something new, and experiencing an inexpensive night out with interesting people.” The event is free, but organizers suggest a $1 donation to offset expenses. A cash bar will be set up to help patrons cool off on a hot day. Friday’s lineup is: 1. Yalda Bozorg — From an Idea to a Concept 2. Lyle Rebbeck — JazzFest: Some reflections on 22 years 3. Andrea Webb — A Journey Through the Bog: Living with PTSD 4. Krista Evans — Storm chasing in Tornado Alley 5. Wes Bell — Unraveling Snag 6. Jared Harty — Advancements in Music Production 7. Bob Horne and Bev Biggeman — Prairie Gypsies. 8. Peter Mueller — Trip to Cuba 15-14
