Hosted with the Frist Art Museum
Art: Ron Jude; Poster Designer: Michellée Hartley
Inspired by the current exhibitions at the Frist Art Museum from Beatrix Potter to Ron Jude, this PechaKucha will focus on presentations centered around conservation of our natural environment. With inspiration in mind, we will also explore human’s innate biophilia and how that drives design to incorporate and celebrate elements from nature.
Free admission to the exhibitions will be included in your ticket, however, you will be encouraged to come early in order to spend time in the galleries before the event.
Beer, wine and snacks will be included in your ticket.
About PechaKucha
Drawing its name from the Japanese term for the sound of "chit chat", PechaKucha rests on a presentation format that is based on a simple idea: 20 images x 20 seconds. It's a format that makes presentations concise, and keeps things moving at a rapid pace.
