We are looking for a Venue…. Can you help?
Posted in Uncategorized | No Comments »Happy New Year!
We hope that everyone had a great holiday season!
Thanks to all of you for making 2009 a great year for Veggie Conquest. You made Veggie Conquest more than we ever dreamed. The chefs really brought their A-game to the competitions! The volunteers worked so hard to make each event run smoothly. The sponsors gave really awesome prizes, and the tasters snatched up their tickets faster than we ever imagined!
We are getting back to work here at the VC headquarters (a.k.a. Jessica and Dj Lil Ray’s apartment) and have some exciting things planned for 2010. We are talking with talented future judges, and we’re looking at some exciting variations on our current Veggie Conquest competitions! And our friends at Fallen Arrows have made some very cool Veggie Conquest merchandise! Stay tuned for info about all of these things.
We Need Your Help
Unfortunately, Not Fade Away Gallery (our amazing venue for VC3) is temporally closed while the owners find a new permanent residence for the gallery. Veggie Conquest needs your helping finding a new venue for the competition. We know that all of you out there know people and places — so let’s see what you’ve got!
Here’s what Veggie Conquest MUST have in a venue:
A sink
Enough room to seat at least 70 people at tables
A central location near transit, preferably in Manhattan or Brooklyn
Bathrooms
Available on a Saturday night or Sunday evening
We must be able to bring in outside food
Here what Veggie Conquest WISHES for in a venue:
Tables and chairs (this is a BIG BIG plus)
A sound system
More than one sink
A kitchen
We do have a small budget to work with (a bigger budget if the venue has tables and chairs).
Please email Jessica at info@veggieconquest.com if you have a connection at a potental venue or know of a place that would be good for us!
When is the Next Veggie Conquest, you ask?
Well, that depends on when we find a venue. We would love to have the next Veggie Conquest in February if all goes well.
Thanks — and we hope everyone has a great first week of 2010!
