About this Event
Visitors may think of hot chicken, meat and threes, and barbeque when they think of Nashville, but as our city has grown, so has the diversity of flavors. When someone thinks of finding somewhere to feed themselves, after accessibility or affordability, “place” is an important aspect. Food can define community identity and it is often the center of a local economy. It’s this underlying component that drives people to consider culture, atmosphere, and belonging when seeking food. Food is a basic necessity, but it is so much deeper than that. How do the flavors and food cultures of our community shape our sense of belonging and identity?
PechaKucha 47: Flavors Among Us will feature lightning talks celebrating the producers, makers, and consumers of food in Nashville. There will be 8 talks under 7 minutes each covering a range of food-related topics. Attendees will also get to sample food from local partners, including Citizen Kitchen.
Presenters will be announced soon…
About PechaKucha
Drawing its name from the Japanese term for the sound of "chit chat", PechaKucha rests on a presentation format that is based on a simple idea: 20 images x 20 seconds. It's a format that makes presentations concise, and keeps things moving at a rapid pace.
PechaKucha Night was devised in Tokyo in February 2003 as an event for young designers to meet, network, and show their work in public. It grew into a massive celebration, with events happening in hundreds of cities around the world, inspiring creatives worldwide. The Civic Design Center is the Nashville host.
