About us
The BrisVegan meetup is a social group for like-minded people to come together in Magandjin (Brisbane) to share food, ideas, knowledge and create community. Our group philosophy is very similar to the concept of ubuntu.
You don't have to be vegan to join but please only order vegan food at meetups and bring vegan suitable dishes to pot lucks etc. We would love to introduce you to how great vegan food can be!
We respectfully acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of this land, the Turrbal and Jagera people. We thank them for their ongoing care of the country we meetup on.
Disclaimer: Please note that all events are simply outings of interested people. We are not an official club or association, and therefore participants are asked to take personal responsibility at events.

Extra dinner + boardgames @ Vega Cafe, Spring Hill
Vega Cafe, 448 Boundary St, 1, Spring Hill, AUWe love Vega and our regular boardgames there, so we are trialling running a second event there on the fourth Friday of each month (in addition to our usual second Friday).
Come along and eat, drink, chat and play games with like-minded people!
We provide straightforward games and will help you learn to play them - all you need to bring is yourself. If you have any games you want to share, we appreciate it if you bring them along as well.
We will be at Vega Cafe in Spring Hill. It's a lovely space with outdoor tables and gorgeous artwork on the walls. To check out Vega Cafe's delicious dinner menu and drinks, or for more info about the venue check out https://www.vegacafe.com.au/ If you would like to support our events, please make sure to purchase something, even just a selection from their delicious drinks, cakes and pastries.
This is a casual event, so turning up late, with an extra friend and changing your RSVP at the last minute are all fine. We often get a good turnout, so we look forward to seeing regular faces and new ones.
Our group philosophy relates to the concept of ubuntu. So check that idea out if you haven't before.

Vega Cafe, 448 Boundary St, 1, Spring Hill, AUWant to make your voice heard for the animals 🐶🐮🐷🐑🐐🐭🐹🐰🦇🐾🦃🐔🐓🐥🐦🦆🪿🐸🐱?
Each month, we gather online Actions from around the movement that create a kinder world for animals and protect the planet we share. 🌏
You can do them online in your own time, or come along to Vega Cafe and meet up on the first Sunday of every month with a friendly group of fellow animal defenders to do them together.
Bring your laptop, tablet or phone, grab something from Vega’s lovely menu, and settle in to connect and take Actions together – things like signing petitions, writing to decision-makers, making policy submissions, or adding supportive online comments and reviews.
This event is run in collaboration with AnimalKIND's volunteer hub https://animalkind.org.au/. So you can also get involved in some longer-term digital volunteering to help their campaigns.
Anyone looking for advice on other forms of activism around SEQ should also come along, as we can probably point you in the right direction.

The month’s Actions List will be posted on the website before the day, usually linked from the big image on the front page.📱 Note, this event is also on Facebook: facebook.com/A4ACommunity/events RSVP in either or both places, or just turn up. All welcome!
