By Invitation Only:

Death Café

Death Café

“Life Is Short. Let's Talk About It.”

Come hungry, bring your curiosity, and pull up a chair. At our Death Café gatherings, we'll share food, fellowship, laughter, and honest conversations about the one thing every one of us has in common: death. Each week, we will cook, eat, sip, reflect, ask questions, tell stories, and get down to the real-real about life's final transition in a warm, welcoming, and judgment-free environment. Because when we learn to talk openly about death, we often discover how to live more fully.

*Due to the intimate nature of these gatherings, seating is limited! Reserve your spot today!
