VSDC Movie Watch Party, Discussion, and Vegan Food
Saturday, September 12, 2026, 6:30 PM EDT
Held at Fairfax, Fairfax, VA
Hosted by Veg Society of DC
Join the [Veg Society of DC (VSDC)](vsdc.org) for a pro-animal/vegan-themed Movie Watch Party on Saturday, September 12 at 6:30 pm in Fairfax VA. Socializing with vegan food beforehand and discussion about the movie afterwards is planned.
This month we will screen The Sheep Detectives, featuring Hugh Jackman and lots of other famous actors doing voiceovers. The movie uses talking sheep to explore themes of grief, memory, and empathy for animals. It encourages audiences of all ages to look past common stereotypes of animals (and humans) and embrace compassion
The VSDC member hosts’ home in Fairfax has a small home theater that can accommodate around 20 people. This regular event is a fun way to learn, discuss, and meet vegans and vegan-curious people (Thanks to Mindy Kursban and David Kwiatkowski for hosting!).
FEE: The $12 fee will cover the hosts' expenses for the event, including food, beverages, and other associated costs. If there are any proceeds beyond these costs, which we don't expect, they will go towards VSDC's work to fulfill its mission. In order to ensure the success of the evening and limit late cancellations, the fee is refundable until 5 days before the event.
BECAUSE THERE IS A FEE FOR THIS EVENT, MEETUP DOES NOT ALLOW FOR A WAITLIST ONCE THE RSVPs ARE FULL. IF IT IS FULL, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU CHECK MEETUP OCCASIONALLY TO SEE IF ANYONE HAS CHANGED THEIR RSVP. PLEASE be sure to include your first name, last name, and email address when you RSVP; this info is required.
FOOD: Typically pizza, salad, fruit, and desserts. Feel free to bring any vegan food or beverages to share.
WHO: All VSDC and Meetup members are invited. Bringing a non-vegan friend is encouraged.
WHEN: Saturday, September 12 at 6:30 pm. We'll eat and enjoy social time together first and begin watching the movie around 7:00 pm.
