Vegetarian Star

Update: This event has been cancelled.

If you’re looking for a chance to shake hands with who some call an eco hero, plan on attending the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society fundraiser event at Moo Shoes in Manhattan on November 11, where you may meet Captain Paul Watson, star of Whale Wars and founder of the Sea Shepherd organization.

Watson and the Sea Shepherd crew were recently parodied on the Comedy Central cartoon Southpark.

The event is being hosted by PPath‘s Kelly Overton, will include a speech by the Captain, as well as food and music by Princess Superstar.

To inquire about the event and to obtain tickets, email Kelly at kelly_overton [at] post [dot] havard [dot] edu.

Farm Sanctuary, an organization created to combat issues of animal abuse on farms,  will be holding a benefit on December 4th, 2008 at the Art Director’s Club in New York City.

“Winter Wonderland,” will feature gourmet food from NYC’s best vegetarian restaurants, a silent auction, and of course, celebrities to mingle with, like Corey Feldman.

Sure hope he’s wearing more than what he was in the Give Peas a Chance ad, which played upon one John Lennon and Yoko Ono did years ago. New York’s a little cold in December for that, Corey.

Other notables you might get to rub elbows with are Jennifer Coolidge, Peter Max, Patrick McDonnell, Tatum O’Neal,
Daniela Sea, Ally Sheedy, Princess Superstar, Loretta Swit, and
Justin Theroux.

General admission tickets are $100, so if you’re a young, freshly graduated from college adult or pinching pennies, put some back from your paycheck you got TODAY. It’s for a great cause and will put you in the mood for the season.

And who knows? Corey might not be wearing much after all.
