SUMMARY:Death Cafe at Congressional Cemetery
DESCRIPTION:We welcome you to join us at one of our monthly Death Cafes at Historic Congressional Cemetery. \nAs an active burial ground\, Historic Congressional Cemetery is well acquainted with death\, but just what is a Death Cafe? \nDeath Cafe is a global movement to encourage discussion about the often-taboo subject of death. These are intimate informal gatherings where we discuss death while eating cake and drinking tea to remind us of comfort and sweetness even in difficult times. There is no agenda other than providing a space for an open-ended conversation. \nPlease join us to explore these topics in the spirit of curiosity and wonder. These gatherings are not meant to offer or replace grief counseling. In the interest of privacy and being present\, we ask that these conversations remain in the room and there be no recording\, note-taking\, or personal details shared afterward. \nFollow this link for more about Death Cafe history and concept. \nOur Death Doula in Residence\, Laura Lyster-Mensh\, facilitates our death cafes and represents the cemetery for these evenings with a range of guest co-facilitators from the community. \nCongressional Cemetery offers these unique conversations free of charge\, and offers tea and sweets in the tradition of death cafes around the world. We do ask that you consider bringing a food or beverage item to share\, or a suggested $5 donation\, to help cover event costs. \nDue to space limitations and to allow us to offer an intimate conversation\, please reserve a chair in advance for the dates you will be joining us. We release reservations three months before the scheduled date. To be on the waitlist for any unavailable dates\, use the form on this page or contact Laura by email. \nQuestions? Email Laura at deathdoula@congressionalcemetery.org \nInterested? RSVP to reserve your seat HERE!

SUMMARY:Death Cafe at Congressional Cemetery
DESCRIPTION:We welcome you to join us at one of our monthly Death Cafes at Historic Congressional Cemetery. \nAs an active burial ground\, Historic Congressional Cemetery is well acquainted with death\, but just what is a Death Cafe? \nDeath Cafe is a global movement to encourage discussion about the often-taboo subject of death. These are intimate informal gatherings where we discuss death while eating cake and drinking tea to remind us of comfort and sweetness even in difficult times. There is no agenda other than providing a space for an open-ended conversation. \nPlease join us to explore these topics in the spirit of curiosity and wonder. These gatherings are not meant to offer or replace grief counseling. In the interest of privacy and being present\, we ask that these conversations remain in the room and there be no recording\, note-taking\, or personal details shared afterward. \nFollow this link for more about Death Cafe history and concept. \nOur Death Doula in Residence\, Laura Lyster-Mensh\, facilitates our death cafes and represents the cemetery for these evenings with a range of guest co-facilitators from the community. \nCongressional Cemetery offers these unique conversations free of charge\, and offers tea and sweets in the tradition of death cafes around the world.

SUMMARY:Remembering Irish-American Sacrifice: Arsenal Monument Wreath-Laying
DESCRIPTION:On March 27\, Historic Congressional Cemetery invites the public to join us in a remembrance and wreath laying ceremony at the Arsenal Monument\, honoring the Irish immigrant women who lost their lives in the tragic Washington Arsenal explosion during the Civil War.\n\n\nIn June 1864\, a catastrophic explosion tore through the Washington Arsenal\, killing young women and girls who had stepped into industrial work traditionally reserved for men while the nation was at war. Most of them were Irish immigrants serving their adoptive country while many of their husbands fought in the Union Army. Their labor supported the Union cause and their deaths shook the capital. Today\, their memory endures beneath the towering Arsenal Monument at Congressional Cemetery\, a lasting testament to sacrifice\, service\, and immigrant contributions to America.\n\n\n\nThis year’s commemoration will feature remarks from Executive Director Mark Hudson and Her Excellency Geraldine Byrne Nason\, Ambassador of Ireland to the United States. Ambassador Nason will lay the ceremonial wreath at the monument in honor of the women whose lives were cut short in service to their adopted nation.\n\nThe Arsenal Monument stands not only as a memorial to tragedy\, but as a reminder of the essential role immigrant women played in shaping Washington\, D.C.\, and the United States. Their story reflects courage in the face of hardship and underscores the enduring ties between Ireland and America.\n\nAll are welcome to attend this free public ceremony as we gather to reflect and remember.
