Death Salon: Conversation About Death

When was the last time you had a conversation about death?  Better yet-- when was the last time you had a conversation about death with a group of strangers?  Unless, you have attended a death salon, chances are that your answer to this question is, “Never.”   What is a death salon you ask?  It is a gathering of a community members over tea and dessert to take part in a lively discussion about death. This is a common custom in Europe, and it is becoming more common in the U.S. Note: This is not intended as a bereavement group. 

We had a great turnout for this event. Conversation included: Can you bury in your own backyard? What is a home funeral and green burial? End-of-Life Option act. Importance of pre-planning. Sharing of personal experiences and more! Great Community!

WHEN: Sunday March 26, 2017 2-4pm
LOCATION: Chapel of the Angels - 250 Race Street, Grass Valley, CA.  Tea & snacks served! (14)  FREE!
