PechaKucha Night Providence

Laugh, learn, and get inspired by a mix of people from Providence as they share their ideas, stories, and creations using the PechaKucha format of 20 images that last 20 seconds each. Named best event in Rhode Island by RI Monthly!

This Month’s Theme: L.O.L

As the summer winds down, we can’t help but LOL.

Lots of Love?
Loving Old Leather?
Linking Our Leaders?

You tell us!

Parking: Street parking along Dyer Street. There is a paid garage on Eddy Street. It’s downtown vibes, so we encourage you to carpool, take public transit, and come early!

Seating: The Guild will have their benches set up, but if you’ve been to a PK with us here in the past, you know this is the prime time to break out your blankets and lawn chairs.

Food and Beverages: The Guild will be pouring beverages throughout the night, and we’ll have a food truck on site.

Doors open at 7:20pm and presentations kick off at 8:20pm.

PechaKucha Providence is built and sustained by our community. Thank you to our venues, vendors, and volunteers make this magic happen each month. Thank you to the Providence Tourism Council for supporting us in spreading the word about what we do.

What is PechaKucha?

If you haven’t heard of this global yet unpronounceable phenomenon, PechaKucha is a monthly format for sharing ideas in which presenters are allotted 20 slides and 20 seconds per slide. Simply put: it’s 6 minutes and 40 seconds of show and tell for grown-ups. It began in Tokyo in 2003, has since spread to over 1,200 cities worldwide, and first landed in Providence in March of 2009. To the best of our knowledge, Providence is the only chapter in the entire world that hosts a PechaKucha Night every month of the year.
