We held our inaugural PechaKucha Night at The Northern Eye Festival in October and we loved seeing such a varied selection of presenters and hearing all about their work.

We are now pleased to announce PechaKucha Night Volume 2.

What is PechaKucha?

PechaKucha (Japanese for chit-chat) is a simple storytelling format where you show 20 images, each for 20 seconds. The images advance automatically on a timer and you talk along to the images. There is no option to ‘pause’ or ‘go back’ - you have a total of 6 minutes and 40 seconds to present!

It's fast, informative and above all, FUN!

Inspired by their desire to “talk less, show more,” Astrid Klein and Mark Dytham of Tokyo's Klein-Dytham Architecture (KDa) created PechaKucha in February 2003. In 2004, cities in Europe began hosting PK Nights, followed over the years by hundreds of others. As of April 2019, PechaKucha Nights had been held in more than 1,142 cities worldwide with more than 3 million people attending.

We look forward to now bringing regular PK Nights to Colwyn Bay throughout 2020 - a perfectly named year for the fabulous '20 images x 20 seconds' format!

Volume 2 - North Wales Photo Special  

To celebrate the exhibition by 'The North Wales Project'  Volume 2 was held in Oriel Colwyn on the same evening as the exhibition opening.

We invited 8 individuals to share personal presentations specifically about photographic work being made in or about North Wales.
