OUR ROOTS RUN DEEP

Our mission is simple but profound: the struggle towards nonviolence and the creation of a just and healthy world for both humans and animals. 

We actively resist racism, sexism, homophobia, classism, and other forms of violence against humans in our efforts to end violence against animals. We are working with one another to help create a healthy, joyful world for everyone!

We recognize that access to healthy foods is unjustly distributed in our community, and we are working to ensure food accessibility to everyone that attends this free festival.

Join us on Sunday, September 15th 2024 at IX Art Park to for vegan food, speakers, live entertainment, cooking demos, children’s activities, yoga, and a community event like no other!

MAKE A DONATION

We bring together non-profits, small businesses, and entertainment to create a truly special day and we couldn’t do it without the generous donations of our community.
