Love & Loss Candle Making Event

The Love and Loss event offers a sacred space for individuals to connect, sip mocktails, and create a homemade Luna Rose candle that symbolizes your journey through grief. We recognize that grief comes in many forms whether that be death or non-death related. Instances of love and loss touch us in ways that are unique to our lived experiences. Your candle is a tangible recognition of what you wish to illuminate and connect to. Whether that be parts of yourself that you are calling back home, and/or a loved one's spirit that glows when you light your candle in remembrance, it is for you to decide. This event is an invitation for you to come as you are and be held in a community that understands the waves of love and loss. This is our second time hosting our Love and Loss event and we are honored to bring this community together again. Let's explore, connect, and create together.

Be exactly as you are and please give others that same gift of showing up authentically. Please respect others and their journey with grief. There is no limit to having compassion <3
