About us
Welcome to ChicagoVeg – Chicagoland Vegetarian, Vegan, Raw Foodist Community.
ChicagoVeg is the largest Chicagoland community for vegetarians, vegans, and raw foodists to socialize and meet like-minded people. We organize a range of fun activities and educational events in the city and the suburbs. Whether you are vegan or not vegan, we welcome everyone who is interested in a vegan/vegetarian/raw lifestyle for any reason - ethical, environmental, health, or spiritual. We support a nonjudgmental community where everyone can feel welcome to express their opinions, socialize, and have fun! Some of the fun activities include the following: vegan food potlucks, exchanging vegan recipes, dining out at local vegetarian/vegan/raw restaurants, lectures pertaining to the veg*n lifestyle, and outreach events that promote a vegan lifestyle. We see the importance of educating others about advantages of veganism/vegetarianism, and we believe that a continuous education and supportive community are vitally important to sustain a vegan/vegetarian lifestyle.
Join us for delicious plant-based meals, share your favorite recipes, discuss living a healthy vegetarian/vegan/raw food lifestyle, support green/eco living, and make new friends!Everyone is welcome!
Join us to hear about and to participate in our upcoming events!

This is something very different than Hollywood movies (fast pacing triggering with sex and violence) but rather an arty cinematography.
