Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
Join Plants & Animals Denver , a vegan advocacy group, for Chomp, a pop-up vegan dinner that starts at 7 p.m. tonight at the Horse Barn, 1031 33rd Street. In keeping with that setting -- an old stable that's been converted to a work space for non-profits and other do-good organizations -- the dinner will have a Western theme. And vegan fare, of course. "Why vegan?" asks the group's website. "Because the food is so good. Because it is the right thing to do. Because it is easy. Because it is empowering. We all have our reasons. Give it a try and to find your own!" See also: Chomp founder embarks on a new adventure: Nooch Vegan Market
The dinner, which is prepared by volunteers, is free, but an $8 to $10 donation is appreciated, and diners should bring their own set-ups.
The group hosts similar dinners on the first Wednesday of every month for more information and reservations, visit the Plants & Animals website.

Keep Westword Free... Since we started Westword, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Denver with no paywalls.
