Bring your curiosity, your courage, and a sense of humor as we sit around the table at the gatehouse (almost) every Saturday in 2023 to explore our worries and wonderment about mortality. Join our new death doula in residence for a weekly series of conversations and workshops about the end of life.  Cake and tea provided. Donations to our host, Historic Congressional Cemetery, are warmly encouraged.

By facing our fear of death we aim to best enjoy every breath. Reserve your chair today: click below.

OUR ACTIVITY THIS WEEK: HAVING THE LAST WORD. Join us around the table to start the project of writing brief letters to those we leave behind: your wisdom, your hopes, your gratitude. No experience necessary. Bring writing paper, your favorite pen (or laptop), and your favorite tea to share. Come any time, stay as long as you like!

SPECIAL GUEST STOPPING BY 11am-noon: Sharon Metcalf at 11am to give a tour and share an update on Congressional Cemetery’s Circle of Life, discuss green burial.
