PechaKucha

Night 21: Pretty Vacant
Curated by Architecture + Design Scotland (A+DS)

Thursday 11th September
18.00 – 20.30

—

As part of the ongoing GREEN2014 programme, Architecture and Design Scotland has been invited to curate Pretty Vacant at The Whisky Bond. Here a range of speakers will give their own take on transforming vacant space, animating public space and urban food growing.

PechaKucha is a simple idea: 20 images for 20 seconds each making talks that last just under 7 minutes. It’s a format that keeps things concise and moving at a rapid pace.
