About this Event

Panel Conversation in the Modern Chapel - Chapel A

Loss touches every life, yet each person's journey through grief remains uniquely their own. This panel brings together writers who center grief in their work to explore how the act of artistic creation serves as both a pathway through mourning and a means to connect with others navigating similar terrain.

This conversation welcomes writers, readers, and anyone walking their own path through loss. Together, we'll discover how words can help us make sense of grief—its sorrow and its revelations, its endings and unexpected beginnings. The panel will conclude with an interactive Q&A.

Free. Please consider a to the Green-Wood Historic Fund so that we can continue to offer more death education programs like this throughout the year.

  • Registration: Advanced reservation is strongly recommended. We may reach capacity, potentially turning away late arrivals. While registration is recommended, it does not guarantee entry. Only one space may be reserved per person.
  • Location: Programs will take place at various locations and times throughout the day. Please check the schedule for details on your selected events.
