About this Death Cafe

I have organized this cafe because I want to talk about death, particularly with the people in my neighbourhood.

To be clear, there is no agenda to this Death Cafe.  It is a place for conversation to arise from the participants, nothing less.

I am happy to facilitate this event at Studio.89, a one-of-a-kind, fairtrade, not-for-profit youth-run cafe in Mississauga.  We will be meeting in the cozy second-floor Artademic Centre, a shoe-free zone.  Donations will collected for our venue.
