About this Death Cafe

This death cafe was supposed to happen in person. My venue is closed, so I will rescheduled for another time. I will have a virtual death cafe later this summer.

 

Questions? Email me   at sarah@deathpositivedc.com

At a Death Cafe, we drink tea and coffee, eat cake, and discuss death. The aim is to increase awareness of death to help ourselves make the most of our (finite) lives. What's on your mind about death and dying?

 

In this group discussion, we will cover whatever topics or questions you bring to the group. Tea and desserts will be provided.

 

RSVP required. Email sarah@deathpositivedc.com to reserve a seat. Space is limited and I often have a waiting list at Rhizome. 

 

***This is a discussion group. It is not a grief support or counseling session.***

 

Rhizome is a quick walk from the Takoma Park Metro on the Red Line. There is plenty of street parking (which should be free at that time of day) and there is a small parking lot behind Rhizome. 

 

Death cafes are free. Rhizome is a non-profit community space, and donations to Rhizome are strongly encouraged. When you RSVP I will let you how you can make a donation.


About Sarah, Founder & Director of Death Positive DC

I am the Founder and Director of Death Positive DC. Death Positive DC was started in May of 2017 and is the first organized death positive group in the Washington, DC-area (covering DC, Northern VA, and parts of Maryland). My mission is to promote conversations about death and connect people around this topic through social media and in-person events.  

 

See www.deathpositivedc.com and facebook.com/groups/DeathPositiveDC

 

I want to normalize death as a natural part of life and help people become more comfortable thinking and talking about death. By acknowledging and talking about death, we can live our lives more fully.   

 

I took INELDA's end of life doula workshop in September of 2016 and have also done training with Amy Wright Glenn of the Birth, Breath, and Death Institute. I've been hosting death cafes since November of 2016. Email me at sarah@deathpositivedc.com if you have any questions or want to connect.
