06 Apr You’re invited to our next Death Cafe!

A Death Café is not a support group, a counseling session, or even a workshop. It is simply a gathering of people sharing respectful, thought provoking, life affirming conversation about living and dying in a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere while enjoying warm beverages and delectable treats.

This free event is part of an international movement begun in Europe (www.deathcafe.com ), and is dedicated to taking death out of the closet in order to discuss it publicly.  It is also taking place during National Healthcare Decision Week, as one of the many events organized by our project Taking Steps Brattleboro (to learn about all events that week click here: ALL events April 17-23

Previous Death Cafes that have taken place throughout Windham County have been met with tremendous praise. People have reported them as comfortable, supporting a full range of emotions – from tears to raucous laughter, easier than anticipated, energy charged, inspirational and fun.

The public is welcome and encouraged to attend, but space is limited to 30 people. RSVP’s are required! People are asked to arrive promptly, as doors to the event will close at 6:15pm.
