Many people avoid meat on Ash Wednesday, but adopting a vegan or vegetarian lifestyle is becoming more popular and easier to do in Western New York.

For those curious about going meat-free, Western New York Vegfest is hosting A Taste of Vegan Wednesday night, a mini-food fair at Resurgence Brewing Company in Buffalo.

The event features more than 30 different vegan meals, snacks and desserts.

Since the brewery is hosting the event, each option is paired with a locally-brewed craft beer.

Admission is $26 for adults and $20 for children and includes unlimited samples.

Tickets are available here.
