We’re going on a field trip & we’re bringing our friends!
For two years running the good people at Trapp Holbrook have stepped up to help us bring PechaKucha to the New West community and we’re thrilled to have them on again as our lead sponsors. Thanks to their generous sponsorship, as well as financial support from both the Vancouver Foundation and the City of New Westminster we are pleased to offer our upcoming PechaKucha event on Saturday July 19th, 2014 at Pier Park for free.
For this year’s summer event we’re teaming up with Vancouver Urban Spaces Initiative to bring a laidback daytime dance party to New West’s riverfront setting. With help from local supporting sponsors – Downtown New West BIA, SaveOn Foods, Hyack Interactive, River Market and SoAreWe Creative, we’re excited to offer an afternoon of blips and beats from 4:00 to 9:00 pm from some of the Lower Mainland’s finest electronic music DJs.
As the sun sets we’ll start the presentations at approximately 9:00 pm, with our 10 presenters delivering their inspiring talks with the Fraser River, Patullo Bridge and Golden Ears mountains as the backdrop.
Join us beforehand for some fresh summer treats and locally brewed suds from our friends at Longtail Kitchen, FarmCity Fresh Cart and Steel & Oak Brewing Co.
Lastly, be sure to bring your chairs, friends and blankets – trust us, it gets a bit chilly, for what will certainly be one of the most memorable nights of the summer.
