Discuss death at the Death Café on January 31
St. Anne’s in-the-Fields is hosting a Death Café on Sunday, Jan. 31 (rescheduled from October 2015) from 2:30-4:30 p.m. Death Café is an international movement started in Europe dedicated to taking death out of the closet and discussing it publicly. At a Death Café, people come together to eat cake, drink tea, and discuss death in a relaxed and non-threatening setting. The Café is where people share respectful, thought-provoking and life-affirming conversation. There are no agendas or objectives. It is not a bereavement or grief support group, nor is it a counseling session; it is simply conversation.
St. Anne’s held its first Death Cafe in 2014 (see the Lincoln Squirrel, Oct. 8, 2014). The Jan. 31 event is free, but space is limited and preregistration is required. Register online or call 781-259-8834.
