CANDID CONVERSATIONS ABOUT DEATH

October 9, 2018 @ 6:30 pm - November 13, 2018 @ 8:00 pm

Free

Green-Wood’s Death Café continues throughout the fall. In small groups, participants share their thoughts on death and dying in a supportive environment where they can feel comfortable talking about these universal, but rarely discussed, topics.

The Death Café is inspired by centuries-old European salons where people gathered informally to discuss philosophical, political, or scientific ideas. The first Death Café was started by British entrepreneur Jon Underwood in 2010 as a way to “increase awareness of death with a view to helping people make the most of their lives.” To date, over 5,000 of these meetings have taken place in countries around the world.

Green-Wood’s death educator Amy Cunningham, an independent funeral director, leads the Death Café. Light refreshments are served.

WHEN:  Tuesdays:

  • October 9, 2018
  • November 13, 2018

Reservations are recommended.
