POSTPONED TO 2026 //
Serenading Grief
with Amy Firth
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.
You don’t need to perform or explain - just bring a song, poem, or passage that carries your grief. We’ll listen in community, honouring the ways that art continues to help us hold memory, love and loss.

About Grief In Motion
Born through common themes emerging at the Blue Mountains Death Café, Grief In Motion is a series of creative workshops where we gather in community to be with, listen to, express and honour grief in all its forms. Each workshop will offer a different creative way to be alongside our grief, whether through writing, weaving, painting, pottery, stitching, baking - we are dreaming into a whole series of getting hands on with our grief in new and creative ways.
These workshops are not about fixing or rushing grief - it’s more an invitation to sit alongside it, to give it form, to let it speak - and to share this experience in safe company. Skilfully held by local Blue Mountains creative practitioners and trauma-informed grief workers, these workshops are gentle and spacious. You don’t need any artistic experience, only a willingness to come as you are, with your grief as the guest of honour.
