COMMUNITY EVENTS
Death Cafe + Free Writing Evening
Come take part in a thoughtful evening of writing and conversation on topics relating to grief, death and dying.
Be a part of fostering community and challenging death stigma in North America!
Registration Required!
Death Café with a twist! Incorporating the practice of free writing, this evening will start with 10-15 minutes of individual free writing on topics/ideas related to death, dying, and grief. From here, the conversational part of the evening will begin, as casual and welcoming group-lead discussion on death and dying frame the rest of the event.
What is a death café?
Death cafés are casual conversational evenings for people to come together and discuss the many facets of life and death. It’s a beautiful way to connect with others and have open discussions about death and dying, topics so often deemed as taboo in North American culture.
What is free writing?
Free writing is a writing exercise where one writes continuously for a set amount of time, no editing, no stopping, no worries about spelling or grammar—just getting those thoughts down! This is a great opportunity to get some journaling in and will also be used to help us conjure some conversational ideas and thoughts around grief, death, and dying.
