Open House at Black Beauty Ranch, 10/13, 10/20 | Dallas Vegan

CABBR_Logo

The Cleveland Amory Black Beauty Ranch, America?s largest and most diverse animal sanctuary, is conducting an open house on October 13 and October 20. Named for Cleveland Amory, founder of The Fund for Animals, the Black Beauty Ranch is typically not open for regular public visitation, as Amory?s vision was that it ?would be a place where animals are looked after, not looked at.? This is an incredible opportunity to visit and support an animal sanctuary like no other ? less than a couple of hours from Dallas. More details from the organizers:
