One Saturday or Sunday each month, join us for a great vegan dinner followed by a guest speaker, workshop or presentation about various aspects of veganism. Come meet like-minded people, lend mutual support, and explore veganism in a supportive environment. Everybody, vegan and non-vegan, is invited and welcome!

We strongly believe veganism should be accessible to all. African Americans, Latinas/Latinos, Native Americans, Asians, Asian Americans -- all those who make up our vibrant community are invited and welcome to all events. If you have accessibility requests for any of our meetups, please send Miranda and Victor a note.

      “I am striving to be vegan and just moved to Oakland. I am extremely disturbed about factory farming and want to learn how I can do more to educate people about it. I also would like to learn more about vegan cuisine and meet like minded people.”
