PechaKucha Night Cleveland (@PKNCLE) is always a good time, so I want to share with you my photos and tweets from PechaKucha Night Cleveland Volume 27 (#PKNCLE27). It took place at the Music Box Supper Club (@MusicBoxCLE) on February 18, 2016.
I don't know if it is possible to capture the full atmosphere of the evening in a blog post. I do hope it will encourage you to go in person to a future event to truly experience it live!
PechaKucha Night
The art of concise presentations.
PechaKucha Night, now in over 800 cities, was devised in Tokyo in February 2003 as an event for young designers to meet, network, and show their work in public.
For those of you who have never attended, the following official description of the PechaKucha Night Cleveland Volume 27 event gives you an overview of the format. If you know of a creative person who should present at PechaKucha Night Cleveland, please make special note of the email address to get more information.

More Events at Music Box Supper Club
I also mention in the tweets section of this blog post Cleveland Science Cafe and Brite Winter 2016 (@Britewinter). Both of these events currently take place at the Music Box Supper Club (@MusicBoxCLE). These are two more excellent Cleveland events!
I plan to be posting my blog about BriteWinter soon, so please watch for announcements on Twitter @sos_jr and in my blog at: sosAssociates.com/blog. You can also learn more in my 2015 blog post that included a section on Brite Winter - "Cleveland’s Premier Winter Art & Music Festival."
I have not written a blog post about the great Cleveland Science Cafe, which is sponsored by Case Western Reserve University's (@CWRU) Chapter of Sigma Xi (@SigmaXiSociety). I want to take this opportunity to highly recommend their monthly science lectures.
I have been promoting Cleveland Science Cafe meetings on Twitter via @sos_jr for a few years now, and suggest you sign up on the email list on their website. Also see them on: Facebook.com/ScienceCafeCleveland.
