About this Event
Doors: 6:30pm
Event Start: 7:00pm
Through group-led discussion, this event creates an opportunity for us to hold eachother in care around our experiences, curiosities, ideas and challenges with loss, change, and death. It is a free-flowing, open and dynamic space, rooted in community connection; it is a space for laughter and a space for tears.
Tea and light snacks will be available!
What is a Death Cafe?
Emerging from London in 2011, Death Cafes use food, conversation and community as a means to challenge how taboo death and discussion of death have become. While these are the roots of the Death Cafe, how this manifests is unique and adaptive.
Note: This is not meant to be a substitute for grief or bereavement counselling. As we cater this space to the dynamic emotions and challenges we experience in our modern world, a soft reminder that all types of grief and loss are valid. While human-to-human loss is often where the mind first lands, topics such as ancestral grief, ecological grief, pet grief, anticipatory grief, relational grief, etc., may also resonate with you.
