Time again for Food Fight’s benefit movie night. This time it’s gonna be extra special and fun. Sunday, January 11th is…FOOTLOOSE! And not just Footloose, there will be a pre-movie rock show with our good friends Slingshot Dakota from NYC, including a Footloose Medley. The event will be $5 this time, the rock and the roll will start at 7pm, movie around 8pm. You should really check out Slingshot Dakota, they’re great, here’s their MySpace page. Hope to see you there.

Where: The Artistery, 4315 SE Division St
When: January 11th, 7pm = music, 8pm-ish = movie
Why: So we can keep doing what we do

Tom from Slingshot Dakota, Dave from Food Fight, and Giancarlo (amazing artist who did Food Fight’s mural) will be having a benefit art show, also for the Let Live Foundation. Here’s the details on that:

Come buy something cool and help with some Let Live fundraising.

Hey! It’s official! We’re proud to announce the formation of the Let Live Foundation. We’re gonna try our best to do our best to make things better. Check the about page for all the well-worded details.

Please pass this site around to folks all over. We really think the video section can benefit lots and lots of folks who can’t easily make it out to the bigger AR events or conferences. Hopefully our wee conference here in Portland can have a bit of a ripple effect.

Thanks for checking out the site, we’ll be adding more info and tweaking stuff over the next couple of weeks. Any suggestions, please shoot ‘em our way.

Hey pals. It’s that time of year again, time for the annual (well, it happened last year too) AR Volunteer Roundup! This year is gonna be bigger and better than last year. Why? Because more folks are gonna show up and get involved, right? Right. Here’s the details:

When: Saturday, January 17th, 6-8pm
Where: Vegan Mini-Mall, 1217 SE Stark St, stuff going on in every shop
Cost: Free, of course, but you might wanna donate some change to the local groups who are out there busting their rumps.

The idea is that a ton of people can show up, find out what everybody is about, and get involved with whatever group seems to be a best fit for you. 

Nothing is totally final yet, but we’re hoping to have tables and people to talk to from In Defense of Animals, NW Veg, Portland Animal Defense League, the Let Live Foundation, Coalition to Abolish Animal Testing, Lighthouse Farm Sanctuary, Out to Pasture Sanctuary, VeganThis, OHSU Cruelty (.com), TryVegan PDX, the Vegan Outreach leafletting group, and probably some other folks who we’re forgetting.

Sound good? Sure it does. Mark it on the calendar and please try to come and get involved. Makes life more interesting than just sitting on your futon complaining that things are not going the direction you’d like them to.

Also, if you’re lucky there may be some soft serve or chili or cookies or something else for you to stuff into your mouth. IF you are lucky.
