What drives someone to perfect a craft, repeat a gesture, or pursue an idea beyond reason? Obsession is the force that sharpens skill, fuels innovation, and preserves traditions through relentless dedication. It's where passion and persistence blur into something transformative.

Pecha Kucha is a series created by creatives and thinkers, for creatives and thinkers. An incredible line-up of artisans, designers, and innovators will explore how creative synergy shapes their craft, ignites creativity, and pushes boundaries.

Derived from the Japanese term meaning chit-chat, Pecha Kucha is a fast-paced, engaging presentation format that inspires, informs, and energises. Each speaker delivers a concise and captivating presentation that ensures no moment is wasted.

Sip, connect, and discover alongside other curious minds, creatives, and thinkers. Co-hosted by Ballarat's Australian Centre for Rare Arts and Forgotten Trades, and the Australian Centre for Gold Rush Collections.

Across Victoria’s Midwest, we acknowledge that we travel across the ancient landscapes of many First Peoples communities. These lands have been nurtured and cared for over tens of thousands of years and we respect the work of Traditional Custodians for their ongoing care and protection.

We recognise the past injustices against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in this country. As our knowledge grows, we hope that we can learn from their resilience and creativity that has guided them for over 60,000 years. As we invite people to visit and explore Victoria’s Midwest, we ask that alongside us, you also grow to respect the stories, living culture and connection to Country of the Ancestors and Elders of our First Peoples.
