This event will be held as part of the Soul to Soil Exhibit at Art 634 in Jackson, MI. This exhibition aims to feature artwork and educational events exploring our relationship to death, dying, and grief—topics often considered taboo in Western culture. Exhibited pieces examine death as a natural part of life and interrogate the wider social and cultural implications of treating death and grief as taboo.

What is a Death Cafe?
A Death Cafe is a social franchise. Hosts/facilitators sign up and follow principles and guidelines while using the name Death Cafe.

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 counseling session.

Q***r Death Cafe is a safe space for LGBTQIA+ folks to gather and talk about all things death.

This is a free event - donations appreciated!
