Free community event: “Cultural Conversations on Death, Dying & Grief”
On Sunday, April 27 from 1-4 pm, the Comox Valley Hospice is sponsoring a free community event at the Florence Filberg Centre that invites participants to explore various cultural and spiritual traditions around dying, death and grieving. It will be a safe space for conversation, learning and sharing in a creative and welcoming atmosphere.
By learning about the beliefs and attitudes that are held within other cultures and communities, we can expand our views about the shared experience of dying and grieving and inspire conversations and reflections on something each and everyone of us will experience. It invites building community and fostering joy through tender times.
Six panel members will warmly guide us through approaches and practices related to dying and grieving from various perspectives. There will be time for questions and sharing.
Light refreshments will be available, and the event is open to all at no cost.
