SUMMARY:Death Cafe
DESCRIPTION:What is Death Cafe?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt’s an international movement supporting open conversation about mortality. Join our very own group in Holyoke. \n\n\n\nQuoted from the Death Cafe Webpage:  \n\n\n\n\n“At a Death Cafe people\, often strangers\, gather to eat cake\, drink tea and discuss death.Our objective is ‘to increase awareness of death with a view to helping people make the most of their (finite) lives’. A Death Cafe is a group directed discussion of death with no agenda\, objectives or themes. It is a discussion group rather than a grief support or counselling session.”
