About this Death Cafe
Death Cafe 907 is honored to provide a non-judgemental and sacred space for folk to have an organic discussion about death and dying concerns and experiences.
It is our hope that these discussions will motivate advance planning and an overall relief of negative death and dying stigma, such that we are freed to live life more fully and intentionally.
Death Cafe meets every 4th Monday (in person); every 4th Thursday (Virtually).
