Please join VSDC for a vegan networking and social event while celebrating and kicking-off [Veganuary](https://veganuary.com/) in the nation’s capital at the beautiful Botanical Bar!
VSDC is proud to partner with DC Vegan to bring you this special event.
Veganuary has inspired and supported millions of people to try vegan since 2014 – with participants from almost every country in the world. Even if you are already vegan, or just vegan curious, we invite you and your friends to sign up for [Veganuary ](https://veganuary.com/try-vegan/) and receive meal plans, recipes, nutrition information and more.
The Botanical Bar will feature a special Veganuary mocktail, the Green Queen, for the occasion! Also, the [restaurant ](https://www.dc-vegan.com/botanical-bar)will be offering an exciting new vegan steak from Chunk Foods.
There is no fee to attend but PLEASE DO do purchase an entree and drinks from the Botanical Bar or grab a bite from the DC Vegan cafe upstairs – everything is vegan!
Both DC Vegan Cafe and the Botanical Bar are VSDC Green Rewards members so show your VSDC member card and get 10% off on food and beverages.
This event will take place on Saturday, January 6 starting at 6 pm. Come then or come later – people will be there over the course of the evening.
Don’t be a no show! If your plans change, please update your RSVP.
By coming to this event, we expect you to follow the code of conduct found at [Policies – VSDC – Veg Society of DC](https://vsdc.org/policies/).
*See you at the event and bring friends – just be sure to RSVP to let us know.*
