Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning on the grill.
Preheat the grill to medium heat.
Cut the zucchini into 1/2-inch thick rounds.
Cut the bell peppers into 1-inch pieces.
Peel and cut the red onion into 1-inch wedges.
In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Add zucchini, bell peppers, red onion, cherry tomatoes, and mushrooms to the bowl, and toss to coat the vegetables evenly with the marinade.
Thread the vegetables onto the soaked skewers, alternating the types of vegetables for a colorful presentation.
Place the vegetable skewers on the grill and cook for approximately 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the vegetables are lightly charred and tender.
Remove the skewers from the grill and serve immediately as a side dish or a stand-alone vegetarian meal.
