Description
UPDATE: YES, THERE WILL BE CANDY! YES, YOUR MOM THINKS IT IS OKAY TO MAKE A DINNER OF CANDY AND BEER.
Happy times! Vegan Drinks 18.0 is on Thursday, October 29, at Angels & Kings (500 East 11th Street - between Ave A & Ave B) from 7pm to 9pm.
Shout Outs: Starting around 8pm, we'll turn down the music and encourage people to promote themselves, their groups and/or causes for 30 seconds. If you represent a veg*n or animal rights group, come prepared with your (SHORT) spiel and literature!
Check www.flickr.com/groups/vegandrinks for proof that awesome people attend our events, make new friends and learn about great vegan, AR and social justice outreach opportunities. Or something to that effect.
Vegan Drinks (www.vegandrinks.org) is a monthly social networking* event for people interested in promoting veganism and advocating for animal rights. Vegan Drinks’ mission is to bring together a diverse group of people—from cupcake aficionados to animal lawyers to veg*ns of all stripes in between—to build new coalitions and promote the sharing of resources. Vegan Drinks is for newbies and oldies. All we expect is an interest in animal rights, veganism and the pursuit of after-work fun. Show up and introduce yourself, pass around business cards (if you've got ‘em) and embarrass yourself at least once an hour.
[[*Although we think love is grand, Vegan Drinks is not a singles’ event. But, if you happen to meet the love of your life at Vegan Drinks, don't forget to invite us to the wedding! ]]
What to do?
* Be friendly! We'll be passing out name tags, so you can march right up to someone and greet her by name.
* If you're representing an organization (either as an employee or volunteer or general supporter), talk up the organization and the work you've been involved in.
* If you're representing YOU, talk up your vegan and AR interests, your favorite restaurant, your dream job for animals, your blog, etc., etc.
* Sip a drink (alcoholic or non-alcoholic, we don't care!) and relax with like-minded folks for a couple of hours.
What to bring?
* Business cards
* Pamphlets promoting your organization
* Tip money for the cute bartenders
* Your "A" game
