Let’s chat about death! A death café is an opportunity for community members of all ages to gather and have open-ended group discussions about death—one thing we all have in common. A movement that started in the UK, death cafés normalize conversations around death and related topics such as loss and grief, while creating awareness, connection and outlets for expression and exploration. Also, it’s just interesting to talk about death! Please join us for thoughtful conversations.Facilitators: Erica Srinivasan and Maddie Jo Baumann
