Death Café

Posted on by emilyj

Mondays, 7/13 & 8/10, 1:00 pm—3:00 pm

Death Cafés are gatherings where people can discuss death, dying, and mortality in a relaxed, supportive, and safe environment. They are not grief support groups or counseling sessions, but rather opportunities to share thoughts and connect.
Join us for a warm, open, free-flowing discussion. Bring your stories, reflections, or curiosity as we explore how death shapes the way we live. Reduce the taboo of death, connect with others, gain new perspectives, and build community.

All are welcome—no agenda, no judgment. Space is limited, please register for each session separately by calling the Reception Desk or emailing Sahara at  deathcafe@steadygrounddoula.net
