The Great Journey: Conversations on Death & Dying

A morning graced with music, centering the human encounter with death—from faith and the ordering of earthly affairs to the dying body and the threshold itself. Caregivers, guides, and companions join in panels and conversation holding space for both the mystery and the journey of dying.

Life is a great surprise. I do not see why death should not be an even greater one. – Vladimir Nabokov
