PechaKucha San Antonio’s switch to streaming for its most recent event went so nice that they’re doing it twice.
The arts and culture series will return to the web for its 39th edition with a slate of speakers sharing their passions in PechaKucha’s trademark 20 image x 20 second presentation format.
The digital event will be livestreamed on PechaKucha SA’s YouTube and Facebook pages.
Volume 39 features six new local speakers, including San Antonio Food Bank President and CEO Eric Cooper, Folklores Coffee House owners Emilie and Tatu Herrera, Black Outside Executive Director Angelica Holmes, Texas House District 121 candidate Celina Montoya, epidemiologist and CEO of the San Antonio AIDS Foundation Cherise Rohr-Allegrini and musician Marc Anthony Smith.
