We hosted the International Vegan Film Fest!

The International Vegan Film Fest is a series of short, award-winning films from all over the world about our planet, the animals, and our future. This cinematic journey will leave you feeling empowered, inspired, and hopeful about the future we can all create together. The films selected avoid overly graphic content and focus on storytelling that enlightens and motivates. We hope you enjoyed the experience, and may it spark meaningful conversations and actions towards a more compassionate and sustainable world!
