As discussed at our last meetup, animal welfare is one of the four big causes that have gathered the most support from the EA community. Coincidentally, Mad City Vegan Fest is coming up soon!

Many of the EA group members will be there either as volunteers or attendees. If you'd like to attend and pick a time to meet up with other EA Madison members there, feel free to coordinate that in the comments area.

Some questions to think about while attending:

• What metrics should you measure to determine if the event was effective?

• How could you collect the data for those metrics?

• How could the event have been made more effective?

Event description:

Join an expected crowd of over 2,000 attendees for delicious food (free samples and larger portions for purchase), inspiring speakers, cooking demonstrations, a great variety of exhibitors (some with products for purchase), and raffles throughout the day -- get a free raffle ticket just for showing up!

Mad City Vegan Fest is a great opportunity to learn more about protecting animals, the environment, and your health. It’s an event where everyone is welcome -- from omnivores who are just curious, to longtime vegans and vegetarians.
