Vegan Drinks Philly 4.20.10!

4.20.10 @ The Belgian Cafe
21st and Green 7-11 PM


For vegans, vegetarians, and veg-curious:

Time again for Vegan Drinks Philly! This month we are back again at The Belgian Cafe, due to the overwhelming positive response from attendees who came in February. This is a great location with lots of great beer, room for mingling, and awesome vegan hot wings!

This location has plenty of space, so be sure and invite your friends. Vegan Drinks is a great place to introduce nonvegans to veganism. It's also a great place for new vegans, or vegans looking to become more active in the community and meet new friends.

++++++

FYI

Philadelphia just gave birth to a new vegan/animal rights/social justice group, Peace Advocacy Network. They are celebrating their recent formation with a vegan champagne toast and dinner at Mi Lah Vegetarian on 4.15.10 from 6-9 PM. The cost is $25 per person if you pay now, or $35 at the door and includes a glass of champagne, an appetizer, and an entree. There are only a few spaces left, so be sure and head over to peaceadvocacynetwork.org if you're interested in reserving a seat.

Peace Advocacy Network is spearheading several campaigns in Philadelphia including working towards a ban on horse-drawn carriages and creating new vegans with the Vegan Pledge. Be sure and check them out. I know they need volunteers if anyone is interested!

TWO events this month for a good cause!

We are pleased to announce there are TWO, count them, TWO Vegan Drinks Philly events this month in an effort to help Chenoa Manor raise the additional $75K needed to complete the barn renovation project! Please come out to show your support!

Vegan Drinks Philly meets Vegan Cocktails Philly

3.10.10 from 6 pm - 12 am
@ Cantina Dos Segundos
931 N. 2nd Street




You've heard of Vegan Drinks Philly and may have also heard of the new Vegan Cocktails Philly, but now you can check out both groups at the same time for a good cause- helping Chenoa Manor raise the additional $75K needed to complete the $200K barn renovation.

Please join us for a night of cocktails and vegan food. The more you spend, the more we raise for Chenoa Manor ;)

Here's the special vegan menu (in addition to their regular vegan menu):

Warm Asparagus and Quinoa Salad - vegan
with arugula, red and yellow grape tomatoes, red onion, tempeh croutons, sherry vinaigrette

Vegan Chorizo and Potato Burrito - vegan
With cactus escabeche, pico verde, lettuce, rice, and beans


Spinach and Huitlacoche Enchiladas -vegan
with roasted squash mole, vegan crema, and pumpkin seeds


Spanish Pocha Beans Tinga - vegan
with wild Mexican greens

*just to be clear- the restaurant also has a "vegetarian" menu and "vegetarian" items on the menu. Those items are NOT VEGAN and contain animal secretions. Please be sure that what you are ordering is indeed vegan so there is no confusion. VDP only encourages the consumption of purely vegan food out of respect for animals.


AND ALSO COME OUT TO...


Vegan Drinks Philly
3.24.10 from 6-10 pm
@ Tattooed Mom

Join Vegan Drinks Philly at an AWESOME new location for a night of friendly folks, drinks, and great vegan food. This event will also help Chenoa Manor finish raising the last $75K to complete their $200K barn renovation project. Please come out to show your support!

Vegan Drinks Philly 2.24.10! UPDATE

Vegan Drinks Philly 2.24.10!

The Belgian Café
21st and Green St.
7-11 pm


This is the final reminder that Vegan Drinks Philly will be kicking off its second year in Philly this upcoming Wednesday at The Belgian Café. There will be vegan offerings, tasty beverage selections, and plenty of hip vegans! Remember, Vegan Drinks Philly is for vegans, vegetarians, and veg-curious so don’t forget to bring your friends no matter where they fall into the spectrum. This is shaping up to be one of the biggest Vegan Drinks Philly events in some time. Do your best to make it out!

Go away, Ringling!

Please pre-game it with Vegan Drinks Philly and Animal ACTivists of Philly for some good old-fashioned demonstrating! February 24th just so happens to be the opening night for the Ringling circus here in Philadelphia. The animals need us to speak out. Please tell circus patrons that animal exploitation is NOT entertaining.

Join us:

@ the Wachovia Center
3601 S Broad St
5-7 pm
-signs and literature will be provided-


We will be on the SIDEWALK in front of the Wachovia Center - Look for our signs or call Marianne at 610-733-1248 if you can't find us.

Chenoa Manor Barn Update

You might remember Vegan Drinks Philly raising money for our local animal sanctuary, Chenoa Manor, in an effort to rebuild their 200-year-old barn. We needed to raise 200K to rebuild it and we’re happy to announce that 125K have already been raised! This has allowed Chenoa Manor to begin phase one of the barn restoration, which will be completed in a few weeks.

The bad news is that phase two needs to be finished in the next six months or it’s possible that the barn will be irreparable! So, all we need to raise is the remaining 75K, which should be too hard, right?? Vegan Drinks Philly is trying to make it easy to help contribute to the cause with the following two events (and of course you can always donate on Chenoa Manor's website):


Vegan Drinks Philly MEETS Vegan Cocktails Philly



Vegan Cocktails Philly meets Vegan Drinks Philly
@ Cantina Dos Segundos 3.10.10 6-1 am
931 N. Second St.


AND ALSO...

Vegan Drinks Philly 3.24.10!
@ Tattooed Moms 3.24.10 6-10 pm
530 South Street


All you need to do at this point is mark your calendars! More details on both events to follow. In the meantime, we will see you this upcoming Wednesday!!

Vegan Drinks Philly is kicking off it's second year of monthly social events! Please join us for our very first time at the Belgian Cafe. Not only do they have awesome vegan beers, but we hear that they're also going to provide a tasty vegan menu as well!

If you've never been to a Vegan Drinks Philly event, or haven't been out in a while, this is the perfect opportunity to catch up with local Philly vegans, vegetarians, and veg-curious. Be sure and bring your friends. What a better way to introduce someone to the idea of veganism than over cocktails in the company of totally awesome people?

Menu selections!

While Earth, Bread + Brewery is not a vegan restaurant, they do have some vegan offerings to snack upon while enjoying your vegan drinks. The choices are as follows:

Olives
Wheatberry Salad
Salads (without cheese or caesar dressing)
White Bean Dip
Edamame
Flatbreads (without cheese or pesto)

Vegan Beers:

FreeTheHikers*
Six Day Bitter

*EB+B will be hosting a month-long fund raiser for the families of Shane Bauer, Sarah Shourd and Josh Fattal - three Americans that have been detained in a prison in Iran since July 31, 2009. (Josh graduated from Cheltenham High School). A 13oz glass is $5 - with $1 being contributed, a 20oz glass is $6 - with $.50 being contributed. Earth will also add additional money per glass sold to the fund. Please visit their website for more information about them and sign the petition.

For more information regarding vegan alcohol, please visit Barnivore.

There has been quite a bit of feedback concerning the availability of vegan foods at the new location. I think it's time to make something clear- Vegan Drinks Philly is not a food-related event. It's not a dinner. It's not a potluck. It's about vegans, vegetarians, and veg-curious getting connected with like-minded people. Sorry to sound so harsh, but there are PLENTY of other vegan potlucks and dinners if that's what you're looking for.

If you're only concerned about eating, then this event is not for you. Please visit vegandrinks.org to read the purpose of Vegan Drinks events and if you have any comments regarding it, please direct them to info@vegandrinks.org. That being said, I'm actively working to increase the vegan offerings available and the more people who come to these events, the more leverage we have :)

Helping Haiti!

Since we're not raising any money at this month's event, I'd like to direct you all to give what you can to help the people of Haiti. Food For Life Global is going to begin sending vegan food to Haiti within the next week and your contribution of only $25 can deliver 100 vegan meals to the helpless in Haiti. The situation in Haiti is nothing less than utterly devastating and if you aren't exactly aware of the situation, please watch this video clip of a recent interview from Democracy Now! Please give whatever you can, these people have NOTHING and desperately need our help.

Vegan Drinks Philly 2.24.10!

Just to make everyone aware, the next Vegan Drinks Philly will be on 2.24.10 at the Belgian Cafe from 7-11 PM. More details to be announced in the coming weeks!

Vegan Drinks Philly 1.28.10!

Don't be fooled by imitators! This is the PREMIER and ORIGINAL vegan social event in Philadelphia!

The first Vegan Drinks started up in NYC in May 2008. Since then, Vegan Drinks have been popping up in cities across the nation. So, what exactly is Vegan Drinks? Here's the lowdown from VeganDrinks.org:

"Vegan Drinks 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!"

Vegan Drinks Philly took root here in Philadelphia, in January 2009 and has been going strong every month ever since! THIS IS OUR ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY! So, put down the leaflets and sit back to network and socialize with like-minded individuals. Together we can cultivate ideas, spread the vegan message, and work towards our one common goal- ANIMAL LIBERATION.

This will be our second event at our newest location:

Earth, Bread + Brewery (upstairs lounge)
7136 Germantown Ave (plenty of free parking)
Philadelphia, PA 19119
**no cover**all ages**bring friends (especially non-vegans)**
7-11 PM

Please bring non-vegans, or "veg-curious," as this is a great way to introduce people to other vegans and show them what a happy and fun bunch we all are! The last event was well-attended, but it's always nice when we get a higher turnout. So, if you haven't been in a while, consider making it out!

Also, if you haven't done so already, be sure and head on over to vegandrinksphilly.com and click "subscribe" on the right-hand side so you'll get an email alerting you to all future Vegan Drinks Philly events!!

See you there!

If you have any questions, as always, contact ed@vegandrinksphilly.com

Vegan Drinks Philly
12.30.09 7-11 PM
Earth Bread + Brewery
...for vegans vegetarians, and veg-curious!

Join Vegan Drinks Philly at our new location! Vegans, vegetarians, and veg-curious are encouraged to attend our next social event at Earth Bread + Brewery in Mt. Airy. This new location will much better serve our group as there are two large bars and plenty of space for mingling. Here's a bit about EB+B from their website:

"Earth Bread + Brewery is an earth-friendly place that puts respect for the environment and the comfort of our guests above all else. From the green-minded details of our build out, to our choice of vendors and the way we treat our colleagues, you will find Earth an enticing place to visit. We support local agriculture, local breweries and small producers from around the world."

This is bound to be another fantastic event and a great enhancement for Vegan Drinks Philly as we reach our one-year milestone here in Philly. So, stop on out to meet other like-minded individuals and know you're not alone in your efforts to promote peace for all beings! Bring friends and spread the word!!

UPCOMING EVENTS
_______________

Fur-free Friday!

It's 2009 and animals are still being killed for clothing. There are many other options to keep warm then using fur bearing animals for clothing. Whether it's a coat or fur trim it still all spells death for millions of animals. Now our best friends cannot escape the fur industry as dog and cat skins are used for coats and trim.

It's not elegant, beautiful or sophisticated to wear fur. It only says an animal was violently killed for his skin.

Let's educate consumers about the fur industry so they won't wear or buy fur. Help to end the suffering and violent deaths of minks, rabbits, opossums, beavers, raccoons, foxes, Karakul sheep, and many other kinds of animals.

MORE DETAILS:

We'll be at the Gallery , 11th and Market (in front of the Burlington Coat Factory)
Time: 1 pm to 3 pm

See you there!!!

Any questions? Call Marianne at 610-733-1248 or email rodeo.edu@gmail.com
