Pecha Kucha 03 Recap: IGNITE

Pecha Kucha 03 Recap: IGNITE

Missed our latest Pecha Kucha Night? Catch up with the full presentations here! Our recent event explored the theme “IGNITE,” celebrating the many forms fire takes in our lives—survival, ritual, creation, renewal and destruction.

We were thrilled to host an inspiring lineup of speakers: Benjamin Mountford, Caroline Parker, Matt Ives, Nick Doran Adams, and Tammy Gilson. Each shared their unique perspectives through Pecha Kucha’s dynamic 20x20 format—20 slides, 20 seconds each.

The evening featured a live blacksmithing demo from the Sovereign Hill team, crafting door prizes for a few lucky guests, and a performance by The Steeplejacks, who filled the room with a contemporary take on goldrush songs.
