Conversations Over Cake

Join us for a Death Cafe—an open, informal gathering where people come together to talk about death, dying, and the many thoughts and feelings that surround them. There is no set agenda or objective beyond creating a welcoming space for honest conversation. It’s not a grief support group or counseling session, but rather a chance to explore a topic we all share in common.

Tea and cake will be served as we reflect, share, and listen in a spirit of curiosity and respect. These conversations are meant to stay in the room—no recordings, note-taking, or sharing of personal details afterward, please.

Facilitated by an experienced volunteer. All are welcome.

REGISTRATION RECOMMENDED. By registering, you will receive event updates. 

Please call 703-228-3352 or email Lib-Courthouse@arlingtonva.us for more information.
