SUMMARY:VSDC Movie Watch Party\, Discussion\, and Vegan Food
DESCRIPTION:Join the [Veg Society of DC (VSDC)](vsdc.org) for the animal rights/vegan-themed Movie Watch Party on Saturday\, June 14\, in Fairfax VA. Socializing beforehand and discussion about the movie afterwards is planned. \nThis month’s movie is Chasing Coral. From the director of *Chasing Ice* comes a film documenting a team of divers\, photographers\, and scientists who set out on a thrilling ocean adventure to discover why corals are vanishing at an unprecedented rate. The movie is 1 hour and 29 minutes. \nThe 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!). \nFEE: The $10 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.
