Call for PKN C-U Organizers
Many of you may not know that PKN C-U is organized completely by volunteers. With PKN C-U Volume 12 just around the corner and Volume 13 quick to follow that, we’d love to get more volunteers on board to make PKN C-U Nights happen!
Do you have amazing talents to share? Are you a dedicated PK fan that loves to have fun? We're looking to expand our PKN C-U volunteer team, and it is super easy to get involved!
Just send us an email to let us know that you're interested in joining in the fun!
CUDO would also like to express our deepest gratitude for the dedicated organizers that share their time and talents to make PKN C-U a reality. A big thank you to the superb group of volunteer organizers that are responsible for the coordinating, designing, marketing and fundraising that make PK Nights so fun and beautifully produced. You’re the best!

Call for Presenters
 Speaking of PKN C-U Volume 13, we are looking for our next roster of presenters to speak on Saturday, July 20th at the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts. PechaKucha Night Champaign-Urbana Vol. 13 will bring artists, designers, and creative minds together for a live, high-energy extravaganza to share their work, passions, and insights. But we need your help!
Are you creative, innovative, engaging and otherwise all-around awesome? Do you have a cool or interesting point of view to share? You’re just what we’re looking for – apply now to share your story! But don't delay—applications are due by May 27th!
 PechaKucha Night presenters come from a wide range of fields and backgrounds — activists, architects, artists, chefs, coolhunters, critics, designers, dreamers, entrepreneurs, fashionistas, historians, makers, photographers, and scientists and many more. The PechaKucha format, 20 slides presented in 20 seconds each, gives each of 8-16 presenters only 6 minutes and 40 seconds of fame. This keeps presentations concise and the interest level up, providing entertainment for a larger-than-life crowd.
The most important thing about your PK presentation is that you love your subject matter. Though you will have only 6 minutes and 40 seconds to deliver your final presentation, an ideal topic is one you could talk about for hours. It’s quick and easy to submit your idea, just apply here!

Submit your application by May 27th to be considered for PKN C-U Vol. 13 at the Krannert Center for the Performing Arts. We look forward to seeing what remarkable ideas you will bring to the screen.

PechaKucha is an international phenomenon that was conceived in Japan by Klein Dytham Architecture in 2003, and has rapidly spread to over 600 cities globally. Champaign-Urbana was the 217th city to receive the official “hand shake” from PechaKucha, and one of the first cities of its size to do so. To learn more, visit www.pechakucha.org.
