The second Death Cafe at Chapin Memorial Library
A write up of Myrtle Beach Death Cafe at Chapin Memorial Library
By BLLLINK
The second Death Cafe on successive Saturday afternoons brought together nine people, each eager to share in the conversations.
A few around the table were repeat participants from our first Death Cafe. Within minutes of beginning, everyone seemed to be really at ease as the conversations opened.
In a post-event survey, these observations were shared.
1) "The group size was effective. I wondered how "no agenda" would work - but it went well allowing people to address their concerns."
2. It is self-direted by the people who attend. The conversations ae informative and enlightening at times. People are open and honest with their thought. I found Death Cafe to be a positive and informative avenue to discuss feelings, concerns and topics about death.
Another post-event survey produced feelings that the Death Cafes should be continued at Chapin Memorial Library on a regular basis.
We're looking at holding monthly Death Cafes; there'll be announcements at the Library's Website and a DeathCafe.com.
