Pass It Along:: Vegan Art Exhibition
Cosmo's friend and vegan artist Veronica Ibarra (she makes the groovy buttons we carry...) is co-organizing a vegan art exhibition entitled Ni Musculos Ni secreciones (Neither Muscles nor Secretions) happening in Madrid this May 2007.
Here's a bit about the show from Veronica:
"The idea behind this event is to promote veganism and respect for non-human animals. An art exhibition is an original way of doing vegan outreach. We will be showing art that expresses ideas of veganism and animal issues in very different ways and styles. Art can be a very effective and powerful tool and has always been used to question injustice and provoke social change.
The fact that the artists involved are vegan is also important to the project. One purpose of the exhibition is for people to start perceiving veganism as something that can be interesting to them and even exciting and not a restrictive sacrifice. We want to give out the message that people doing interesting creative and enriching things can also be vegan. Ni Musculos ni Secreciones will be the first contact that a lot of people will have with the concept of veganism, so we intend to give them a positive first impression."
