Grief & Solidarity

A community gathering to grieve, to connect, and to root in collective care ❤️‍🔥 "Unresolved grief inside a person is tragic. Unresolved grief inside a nation is catastrophic." -Valarie Kaur This Grief & Solidarity event is not just about grieving. It’s about weaving our collective sorrows into sustained action. It’s about being true allies for each other—not just in moments of crisis, but in the long, tender work of liberation. Together, we will move through gentle grounding, collective reflection, and community connection, with the intention of using grief as fuel for solidarity and justice. 🫀 All grief is welcome: personal, collective, systemic, […]

Red, White and Bruised : A Soft Rebellion

This July 4th weekend, we’re not celebrating — we’re tending to what’s been scorched and what’s still unfolding. Red, White & Bruised: The Soft Rebellion is a sound-centered gathering born from the grief in our city — in the wake of fires that choked our skies, and amid ongoing ICE raids that continue to separate families and spread fear. This is not a party. This is a place to rest. A meditative sound bath for the overburdened and the underheld. A quiet container to lay down your rage, your grief, your numbness, your breath. A space where stillness is protest, […]

“It’s Complicated” Support Group

Virtual Event

A monthly peer-led Zoom group for people who had a strained relationship with someone who’s died. It can be tough to be in a group with other folks who were close with their parent, sibling, grandparent, partner, co-parent, friend, etc. As much as I like for there to be a range of experiences represented in grief groups, so that we can hear diverse perspectives, sometimes it is nice to be with people who “get it.” When addiction, mental health challenges, conflict, estrangement, abuse, etc. were a part of the picture, it can affect the grief journey in unique ways. This […]

Dead People’s Stuff

Virtual Event

The dead can leave behind so much stuff, from a few sentimental items, to entire homes stuffed to the brim. What to do with it can be complex and filled with conflicting emotions. This is a space to explore our relationships with the physical objects left behind by the dead, what to keep, what to pass on, what we are having hard feelings about, and what we celebrate. Queer Death Salon is a community space for all 2SLGBTQIA+ people to come together to discuss death, dying and grief. It is a facilitated drop-in discussion space, with the purpose of building […]

Childfree By Choice & Grieving

Virtual Event

It’s not a given that everyone who is childfree by choice is 100%, unabashedly content with the decision. While we may be set in our choice, there can still be grief there. I know there is for me. It’s a both-and/two truths situation. Many of us make this choice for a lot of unfortunate, depressing, and/or systemic reasons, and I created this space where we can be with our truths, and hurts, around it all. Our monthly peer-led Zoom group is intended to be a space for people who have chosen not to have children. It is not intended to […]

(a)Wake x Gay Gardens present: A Living Funeral Ceremony & Death Salon

Ritual and community at the edge of what was and what comes next under the Leo New Moon. Join us for a Living Funeral Ceremony followed by a Death Salon. ​A Living Funeral Ceremony is an immersive meditative experience that encourages participants to face their own mortality. Through engaging in ritual and guidance through a death visualization–contemplating your own memorial as you imagine letting go of your earthly self–participants are invited to "die before you die, to live while you’re alive." ​This ceremonial experience provides a safe and supportive space to confront fears around death and impermanence, while also fostering […]
