event Details
Join us for a hosted discussion over coffee and cake about death and dying. This discussion is open to everyone with no specific experience necessary and all welcome to join free of conclusion, belief system or the need to do anything.
Coinciding with the exhibition, All That Was Solid Melts, curated by Juliana Engberg, this event allows you to explore artworks that offer responses to solitude, grief, anxiety, calamity, ideas of time and restoration. Devised during the Covid-19 lockdown, the exhibition travels along an emotional trajectory, resting on moments of metaphor and symbols of regrowth and release.
Join us for a group-directed discussion in our café from 10am, followed by a personal tour of the artworks by Juliana herself. Discover how art and conversation can create a beautiful connection to the topics of love, loss and growth.
Please note this event offers discussion, rather than grief support or counselling. Participation is free, however registration is essential as numbers are limited.
