Because I want to host a documentary screening.
There are a couple documentaries that I'm interested in showing, but I'm waiting on the company of the first to get back in touch to see if it's even an option. The other one, though, is called Vegucated.
It's a quick-style documentary that follows 3 people as they become vegan for 6 weeks. They're followed to the grocery store, to family functions, and to farms. Offering the viewer a glimpse into both the ups and downs of attempting a vegan lifestyle. It doesn't go dramatically in-depth into any one area, such as animal-cruelty or environmental impact.. but it touches base on all them.. leading the viewer to want to learn more.
While there are many 'veg' documentaries out there, this one is especially appealing to those that are just flirting with the idea of trying a vegan or vegetarian lifestyle, as it shows what it's truly like when you first make the switch.
I've already reached out to a few local companies to see if they'd be interested in sponsoring the event.
I've also discussed theater rental, and all that entails, with the local movie theater.
This is the Vegucated trailer:
If you live near Lafayette, Indiana (aka: Purdue country)...
Would YOU want to see the film?
Would YOU bring friends?
Do YOU own or know of a company that is veg-friendly? (sponsors can hand out fliers/coupons, set up information tables outside the screening)
Price per ticket would be very low (around $2), if not free (depends on number of sponsors I can get).
Showing would probably be on a Saturday morning (think 9:30am).
