The Death Café is an innovative initiative designed to create a safe space for discussing death and dying. Set to take place on April 17, 2025, at the Shoreline/LFP Senior Center, this event invites participants to engage in meaningful conversations about mortality.

Attendees are encouraged to bring their stories and reflections, enhancing the communal exploration of how death influences the way we live. The event will also offer complimentary refreshments, including tea, cake, or cookies, adding to the welcoming environment.

By addressing the often-taboo subject of death, the Death Café aims to connect people and reduce societal stigmas surrounding mortality. All are welcome to join, as the event seeks to build a sense of community through honest discussion. This unique gathering not only fosters connection but also provides new perspectives on a universal aspect of human experience.
