The Grief Party
A quiet fire. Warm cider. Gentle playlists. A space to let something go.
About this gathering...
This is not a therapy session and not a “party” in the usual sense.
It’s a simple evening outdoors/indoors with garden lights, a fire pit, light refreshments (homemade cider, chicken-salad croissants from Nunu’s®), and 25 people willing to be human together.
You don’t have to bring grief... you can come simply to breathe, listen, or share a moment around the fire.
If you do want to release something, bring a small note, thought, or token to give to the flames.
