Edmonton Death Café Summer Series! Death Café at the Death Exhibit!
Details
Welcome to the Edmonton Death Café Summer Series! Death Café at the Death Exhibit!
#### PURPOSE
Join us for an unforgettable gathering at Death: Life's Greatest Mystery, an exhibit that dares to unravel the profound enigma every living being faces—death itself.
This immersive experience, originally from Chicago's Field Museum, invites you to ponder your own "big questions" about mortality through stunning artifacts, survival adaptations in the animal kingdom, cultural rituals celebrating life, interactive displays, and captivating media. It's a uniquely human journey that confronts what we often avoid, fostering wonder about life's end and what may come next.
Discover it together at the Royal Alberta Museum -- a perfect occasion to reflect, connect, and celebrate the richness of existence.
