🎉A new mural is coming to Minneapolis! And it’s all about compassion for animals! 🐷

Compassionate Action for Animals is partnering with Vegan East to install a large-scale mural designed to spark reflection and action for animals.

The mural will include interactive elements that invite viewers to go deeper, like an audio tour of the mural and opportunities to get involved in the animal movement.

Now we’re inviting YOU to help make it real. Your donation directly supports materials and fair pay for the artist.

A gift of $25 buys a quart of paint. Your donation will literally put paint on the wall!

📸: Photos show our community dreaming session at Dreamstate Cafe, where we gathered together to generate ideas for the mural!

📣BIG announcement! Compassionate Action for Animals is installing a mural! But we need your help to make it happen! 🐷🎨

This first-of-its-kind public art will invite thousands of daily passersby to expand their circle of care and connect them with ways to take action for animals.

The mural will be located on the side of Vegan East, a bakery in South Minneapolis. We’re currently reviewing applications from 50+ artists. The final design will include interactive elements like a QR code linking to an audio tour of the mural and opportunities to get involved with the animal movement!

🔥Minnesotans, we need to act now!

Right now, federal lawmakers are advancing legislation that could override state-level animal protection laws and weaken standards that many communities have fought hard to establish.

Behind policy language and political negotiations are real lives, including mother pigs confined inside gestation crates so small they can barely turn around while raising their babies.

👉This moment is urgent.
Our latest blog breaks down:

✨What’s happening with the Farm Bill
✨What the “Save Our Bacon Act” could mean for animals
✨Why this matters for Minnesota
✨And most importantly, what you can do right now to help!

Public pressure matters, and your voice can still make a difference🔥
