Gate Opening
11:00 AM
Presentation of the first edition of Veg in Pisa and introduction to Ippoasi, with a live broadcast from the sanctuary
2:00 PM
Inguarigioni: Deviant and non-conforming bodies are bestialized, forced into the grip of medicalization and pity, but within transfeminist and animal alliances we can find a different kind of care—monstrous and non-excluding.
3:30 PM
Medusa: a small consciousness-raising workshop: Machismo is everywhere; with Medusa we will try to call things by their name in order to acquire skills for deconstruction and survival.
The Medusa consciousness-raising workshop will be a transfeminist and antispeciesist space for dialogue.
The workshop has limited spots and requires reservation: info@veginipisa.org
5:00 PM
Take Care of Me: Antispeciesism is a plural struggle in which there are powerful—very powerful—voices that refuse silence.

Concert by Queen of Saba and DJ set by Kenobit
December 7
10:00 AM
Gate Opening
11:00 AM
Fragile: the ground as a living and political space; care rooted in territories and in human and non-human communities; care as respect and consent in action.
Guests: Paola Imperatore, NUDM La Spezia, Ludo (Berta Cáceres), Minerva Ursai (anti-militarism)
2:00 PM
Direct Action and Care: Rescuing hundreds of animals from Kaporos, an obsolete and violent religious tradition. The struggle of Kind Kaporos in New York, between direct action and collective care that transcends species boundaries.
3:30 PM
Taking Refuge: Sanctuaries are places of care, utopia, and experimentation—spaces where alliances are built, relationships are discovered, and new ways of expressing them can emerge.
8:30 PM
Closing and Farewell
