Join us for Open Streets Cedar-Riverside! We need your help in building a community in Minneapolis that is informed about factory farming practices and vegan eating. Every little bit counts!

We will be passing out leaflets with information about the upcoming Twin Cities Veg Fest. When you need a break from leafleting, we will have a table set up with a spin wheel that has questions about animal agriculture. Passerby can spin the wheel, learn a new fact, and win a candy! Afterwards, we invite them to sign a petition against factory farming in Minnesota.

During Open Streets, a section of Cedar Ave and Riverside Ave will be open for folks to play, eat, bike, walk, dance, sing, and more. The event is free and family-friendly. More than a street festival, Open Streets allows neighbors to experience city streets as public spaces where communities thrive. There will be many other local organizations and vendors for you to peruse after/before your time at the CAA table.

There will be snacks, water, and sunscreen available for volunteers during the event. If passerby have detailed questions about CAA that you can’t answer, you can always refer them to the staff member alongside you at the event. Thank you for volunteering!
