POSTPONED TO 2026 // Serenading Grief // Grief In Motion

Grief often has its own soundtrack - songs and words that hold us when nothing else can. Serenading Grief is an evening of shared listening, where we gather to offer the music and poems that accompany our loss. Maybe it’s the song that was played at their funeral, or the poem you return to for solace or strength. Together, we’ll create a circle of listening and reflection, holding space for the emotions that rise when these pieces are shared. A gentle space to share your story of loss through music and poetry.

Writing From Grief // Grief In Motion

Grief has many voices. Some whisper, some rage, some fall silent. In this workshop, we’ll use guided journaling and creative writing as gentle tools to listen, shape and give language to the grief we carry. Poetry and prompts will help open the way, with space to write privately and, if you wish, to share in safe company.

Blue Mountains Dying To Know Day

Blue Mountains Dying To Know Day

We’re not here to whisper about death. We’re here to yell about life.
Join us for a heartfelt morning of storytelling, tea, and courageous conversation as we gently lift the veil on death and dying in the Blue Mountains. This free community gathering is part of the national Dying to Know Day campaign - an annual invitation to bring death back into everyday conversation. Not with fear, but with purpose, love, and a sense of legacy.

This year, we’re shining a light on the power of intergenerational conversations. Because even though 100% of us will face the end someday, only 53% of Australians feel comfortable talking to a loved one about it. Let’s change that—together.
