On Sunday, Oscar winner Anjelica Huston will host a special 70th birthday celebration for PETA President Ingrid Newkirk at vegan chef Matthew Kenney’s foodie paradise, Plant Food + Wine.
When: Sunday, June 30, 2 p.m.
Where: Plant Food + Wine, 1009 Abbot Kinney Blvd., Venice
In addition to vegan hors d’œuvres, birthday cake, and cocktails, the evening will feature appearances by some of PETA’s celebrity pals — including Jillian Michaels and Charo, who narrated a moving video against bullfighting for the group.
“Ingrid has spent her life as a maverick, inspiring people the world over to defend the most vulnerable among us,” says Huston. “I am proud to be an honorary director of this organization, because PETA gets results.”
Newkirk — who was recently profiled by the Los Angeles Times and is the subject of the HBO documentary I Am an Animal — founded PETA in 1980, when no one knew what a vegan was.
