Albany VegFest 2013

albany vegfest 2013 posterThe 2013 Albany VegFest is this Saturday (November 16) at the Polish Community Center on Washington Ave Ext. The event includes speakers, demonstrations, and vendors. Event blurbage:

Our goal is to continue to grow the expo into a nationally renowned event, drawing diverse speakers with an array of educational exhibits, bountiful information, and providing resources for those interested in making positive life changes for their health, the environment, and the animals.
We hope that with the continued growth and production of NY's Capital Region Vegetarian Expo that the surrounding community will begin to more readily support those who choose a plant-based lifestyle.
The ultimate goal is to demonstrate and promote the global health benefits of green sustainable living, environmental awareness, compassion for animals and all beings and to highlight their relationship to plant-based lifestyle in the Capital Region area of New York and surrounding areas.

The VegFest is from 10 am-6 pm on Saturday. Admission is free, but a $5 donation is "greatly appreciated."

Say Something!

We'd really like you to take part in the conversation here at All Over Albany. But we do have a few rules here. Don't worry, they're easy. The first: be kind. The second: treat everyone else with the same respect you'd like to see in return. Cool? Great, post away. Comments are moderated so it might take a little while for your comment to show up. Thanks for being patient.

What's All Over Albany?

All Over Albany is for interested and interesting people in New York's Capital Region. In other words, it's for you. It's kind of like having a smart, savvy friend who can help you find out what's up. Oh, and our friends call us AOA.
