Join us for a vegan compassionate Thanksgiving Potluck and partake in this feast of thanks and bounty with fabulous prizes!

Most attendees may not be vegan, but please be sure to bring a vegan dish. We expect over 200 for this annual event so this is your chance to build community. This is a family-friendly event, so please bring your loved ones young and old, veg or non.

Entry is by donation. Doors open at 4:30. We will also have musical entertainment at the beginning and end of the event, but not during most of the eating time, so you'll have lots of time to socialize.

Stay tuned for updates.

This is an animal-friendly event, so please bring a vegan dish, cut and portioned for serving, with at least 8 servings (=8 big scoops). Vegan means no dairy, eggs, honey, gelatin, whey/casein, or other animal byproducts. You don't have to cook, though--food from a deli is A-OK. Please bring an ingredients list for your dish.

Also, please bring a plate, cup, and cutlery for yourself, and *a serving utensil for your dish*. (a bag for your dirty dishes would be useful, too)

This event will feature a fabulous RAFFLE fundraiser. Please bring some $ for a chance to win some amazing prizes. Tickets are $3 each or 2 for $5.

Proceeds from this event will go to cover Meatless Meetup costs.
