Crappy Hour in Jersey City

When was the last time you had a real conversation about death?

Join us for Crappy Hour—a unique gathering where we trade small talk for meaningful dialogue about the things that matter most: who we've lost, who we're afraid of losing, and what it means to live with our own mortality in mind.

This isn't a therapy support group. It's a space to connect over drinks with others who are also navigating grief, anticipatory loss, or simply thinking about what it means to be mortal.

• Intimate conversations with folks who get it
• Guided conversation prompts (think: a menu of meaningful questions)
• A memory wall to honor what you're carrying
• Optional moments to share a toast
• Full bar and menu available throughout - minimum purchase of one beverage or snack required (please support our host venue!)

• Anyone actively grieving a loss
• People experiencing anticipatory grief (worried about losing someone)
• Those thinking about their own mortality and what matters
• Anyone tired of pretending everything is fine
• People who want deeper connection around life's harder truths

Come as you are & stay as long as you need.
