Here are The Buzz events recommendations for the week starting June 7th, our wee handful of not-to-be-missed picks:
Pecha Kucha #35 – Tuesday, June 8th, Toitoi Hawke’s Bay Arts & Events Centre
There’s been a PK Night hiatus, but it’s back for the first of two 2021 events. The format, for those so far uninitiated, is 20 slides x 20 seconds each. So each speaker presents for 6 minutes and 40 seconds. Topics are as varied as the presenters. The line-up for PK#35 is set to cover underwater life to mental health to local art legends and all sorts in between.
Speaker set:
Lee Pritchard
Carol Larson
Kevin Murphy
Putaanga Waitoa
Alice Guerin
Amy Lynch & Katie Baptiste
Karla Lewis
