Death Over Dim Sum
About this Event
Death Over Dim Sum is a workshop that brings together local end-of-life subject matter experts and Asian American Pacific Islanders of all ages. We hope to start a conversation between generations in a culture where discussion of death is often taboo.
Each table will have an order form akin to a traditional dim sum service, except instead of food items listed, you will decide on topics, questions, and conversation starters. Together with your table, you will decide on what items to “order” from the form, which will in turn spark conversation with the rotating subject matter experts in attendance.
We will be cover the following areas:
- Aging/senior care
- Hospice care
- Palliative care
- End of life care
- Spiritual care
- Funeral planning
- Estate planning
Rest assured, conversation won’t be the only thing served! Along with a feast of information, we will provide food, tea, and activities to fuel participants into the evening.
We encourage our attendees to bring their loved ones regardless of language level! All materials will be served in both English and Chinese (Simplified and Traditional.) While this event is framed around a Chinese American perspective, all who identify as Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) are welcome to the table.
If you have any questions, you are welcome to email Holly at .
