Death Doula Days

Historic Congressional Cemetery 1801 E Street, Southeast, Washington, DC, United States

This week we have a special facilitator, Liana Mensh, an art director here in DC. Do YOU have “aspirational” art and craft supplies that haunt and taunt you? Us, too. So, we’re inviting you to grab those unused marker sets, glitter pens, glue guns and watercolors and bring them down. Not to make great art, though. We’re going to make some bad art and have good fun doing it. Then trade them!
