Their Lives, Our Voices 2008 seeks to bring together individuals from across the region for a hands-on, high-quality conference focused on helping animals. Our goal is to make the conference as inclusive and accessible as possible for both new and veteran activists in the Midwest region, with a focus on farmed animal advocacy efforts. We want to enable as much attendee participation and networking as possible, so we're hoping you can come and make this a great event.
This conference is being organized by Compassionate Action for Animals, an animal advocacy organization based in Minneapolis, MN.
The conference will take place Friday, June 6 through Sunday, June 8, at the Hubert H. Humphrey Conference Center in Minneapolis, MN.
Registration is still available. The cost is $80 for the general public and $40 for students.
More details about the conference.
Register now and you will receive complimentary meal tickets for breakfast and lunch on Saturday and Sunday at the conference. The all-vegan menu includes breakfast scones and pastries from Common Roots Cafe and Whole Foods, a yummy Asian-African fusion buffet lunch, burritos from Chipotle, the latest in tasty vegan snacks, refreshing beverages and much more!
There should be plenty for you to do during your visit to the Twin Cities outside of the conference--another reason for making the trip out here.
Like any major city, Minneapolis and St. Paul have plenty of restaurants, museums, concerts, theater, cinemas, clubs, parks, etc. If you are trying to find something veg-friendly to do, we have provided you with a small list of places and events to help get you started.
