ABOUT DEATH CAFE'
Death Cafés are a national movement in which people gather together to eat cake, drink tea, discuss death and how to make the most of our finite lives ( http://www.deathcafe.com ). Death Café is a group directed discussion of death with no agenda, objectives or themes. It is a discussion group rather than a grief support or counseling session. Although Renee will facilitate (and provide the cake!), in the Death Café there are no hierarchies, we all simply meet as people who are all eventually going to die.
Here's an article from the Humanist Society on death cafes!
http://thehumanistsociety.org/death-cafes-connecticut-humanists-invite-grim-reaper-to-dinner/ "At a Death Cafe, people come together, usually strangers, to share food and drink and to discuss their feelings and ideas about death. This is not a bereavement session. It’s an opportunity for communities to explore and reflect on life in the face of human mortality, to, as Blinn adds, “make people more aware about death with a view to helping people make the most of their lives.”"
