Creative Leap, powered by PechaKucha

Learn about the untold stories of Chilliwack's creative economy at our 11th annual PechaKucha event.

Learn about the untold stories of Chilliwack's creative economy. Our 11th annual PechaKucha event will feature local speakers each with a unique story to tell delivered in a very unique format. There will be an in-studio audience as well as an online audience.

PechaKucha 20x20 is a simple presentation format where you show 20 images, each for 20 seconds. The images advance automatically and you talk along to the images. The word “PechaKucha” is Japanese for “chit chat.” PechaKucha was created in Japan in 2003 by renowned architects, Astrid Klein and Mark Dytham.

It will be fast-paced, insightful and inspirational and the members of the Chilliwack Creative Commission would like to invite you to attend. Please reserve your spot today. In-studio tickets are available on a first-come, first served basis (we have room for 60 attendees).

All proceeds go to the Feature Film Grant provided by the Chilliwack Independent Film Festival. This is an annual award presented at the film festival to a Fraser Valley filmmaker. The recipient receives $10,000 plus professional mentorship to help them fund a feature film that will premiere at the following year's festival.

For online ticketholders, we'll send you a link where you can tune in on Thursday, February 26 at 7:00 p.m.
