Candlelight Gathering

Our candlelight ceremonies offer quiet, contemplative spaces for people carrying grief of all kinds. Through meditation, grounding, breath, reflection, silence, and candle lighting, participants are invited to honor a person, relationship, community, identity, dream, or other meaningful loss, with no expectation to speak or share.

We strive to create welcoming, intersectional spaces that honor how grief can be shaped by race, culture, disability, gender, sexuality, and other lived experiences.
