Fare-Well: Art & Death Café is a free art education program intended to encourage community conversations about death and mortality through the lens of history, art, and creativity. Death Cafés are a global movement aimed at normalizing discussions about an often-taboo topic.
With discussion alongside a creative art project, artist and facilitator Elyse-Krista Mische will use a new theme each month to show that death awareness has historically been integral to art and existence. We’ll learn how to, if not verbally, talk about death while exploring how artists and others use objects, symbolism, and creativity to communicate emotions, thoughts, and practices regarding the passing of time, the truth about vitality, and the reality of mortality. This monthly free program is a gateway for moments of conversation in the art studio, home, and community that will help us individually and collectively fare well.
Hosted Twice Monthly:
First Sundays at 10 AM
Third Wednesdays at 6 PM
Free, please RSVP
Thank you to our year-round Presenting Sponsor: Kayla Rouse in Memory of her parents, Dr. Michael Rouse and Dr. Janet Armstrong.
Artist & Facilitator: Elyse-Krista Mische
