20/20 Night at the Blue Note



Join us on Tuesday, April 3 at 5:30 pm for the next 20/20 Columbia .

What's 20/20 Columbia? It's an engaging, rapid-fire series of show-and-tell segments in which some of our most interesting neighbors share their latest inspirations. Participants each show a total of 20 images, with each slide playing for 20 seconds. The slides are timed to appear automatically and presenters keep a fun and rigorous pace. 20/20 Columbia, sponsored by Mizzou Advantage, encourages networking and information-sharing in the MU and Columbia communities. This event is free and open to the public. Free tickets are available starting at 5pm on Tuesday.

Here's the line-up:
