Join Me at Albany VegFest! June 2, 2018!

I’m so excited to be a featured speaker at the 10th Anniversary of Albany VegFest! I will take the stage at 1:30 pm (through 2:15) and talk about the “Business of Ethics.” How I went from a very unlikely vegan to an ethical vegan to a vegan business owner to the Director of Marketing for Compassion Over Killing.

Then, after my talk, I head over to the VIP tent to spend time with fellow speakers and VIP (very important vegans) and round out my day with a book signing at 3:00!

SO much more information below (check out the other speakers, entertainment, sponsors, and vendors. The event is FREE (suggested $5 donation at door) but The Skeptical Vegan (signed) will cost $20 (show special price). I’m also selling the very popular Mind Your Peas and Cukes coffee mugs ($10).

Also, Compassion Over Killing will be tabling! If you’re interested in volunteering, please let me know!

So, join me Saturday, June 2nd from 10AM-5PM {9AM early entry for VIP ticket holders} at the Polish Community Center in Albany, NY!
