A Brentwood food hall will hold a vegan cuisine festival in November to help kick off World Vegan Month.

On Saturday, Nov. 4, miXt Food Hall at 3809 Rhode Island Ave. will host the Vegan Curious Festival, featuring plant-based offering from its regular vendors as well as local guest vendors selling vegan foods and products.

While vegans and vegetarians will have plenty of options, those who are just curious can order a full meal or try a sample with the “dollar-bites special.”

In addition, there will be a pop-up farmers market outside on the patio.

The festival, which runs from noon to 6 p.m., will host a panel at 1 p.m. called “The Future of Food Is Vegan” moderated by Naijha Wright Brown, executive director of the non-profit Black Veg Society.

Panelists include Michael Jantz Moon, founder of D.C. Vegan; Sabina Jules, chef/owner of Motherland Kitchen in Frederick; and Chelse Williams, owner of Smoky Mmm Eats plant-based meats.

There will be a chef demonstration at 5 p.m., by Tarik Frazier of MushDC, a miXt vendor that makes vegan sandwiches.
