💀Stones and Bones 💀 This gathering was about death, grief, and mourning... so I knew we were going to need some comfort food. I made these delicious homemade donuts filled with rose hip jelly for the occasion. #deathcafe #donuts #wildfood #misswondersmith

Hey Louisville! I'll catch you at @lfpl.bsky.social on August 21 for our next death salon. We're talking about donating our bodies to science. Generous? Yes. Confusing? Also yes. Let's figure it out together.

#deathpositive #louisville #deathsalon #deathcafe #library #bodydonation
White and lime green typewriter text on a black background reads: Calling all do-gooders! How to donate your body to science. What does "science" mean in this context? Can you donate your body to anything else? Any reason science wouldn't accept the generous donation of your corporeal form? Find out. Due Date: A Library Death Salon. Louisville Free Public Library Main Branch. August 21, 2025 at 7pm. All this text is atop the faded image of an old-fashioned library book borrowing card. Below this is a logo: a cartoon skull with heart eyes atop a lime green heptagon surrounded by black text that reads My Parents Are Dead, What Now? Green text on a black background reads: DUE DATE - A LIBRARY DEATH SALON. All sessions 7-8 p.m. at the LFPL Main Library in Louisville, facilitated by writer and death doula Becky Robison. In the center is an image of an old-fashioned library borrower's card, featuring columns for date due and borrower's name. But this one is labeled with UPCOMING SESSIONS: 7/24 - What's dying really like? 8/21 - Donating your body to science. 9/25 - Your funeral rights (not rites). 10/23 - Estate planning is spoooooky. An explanation on the side reads: Somewhere between a workshop, a support group, and a weird party, these monthly death salons will help you come face to face with the Grim Reaper—and maybe even befriend him.

It’s #Death and Tacos 🌮 night at my house! (Instead of cake, I do a taco bar at my #deathcafe.) Since there’s no agenda, the guests drive the conversation. It’s always different & always promotes insight and emotional connection. #deatheducation #advancecareplanning

Hosting my monthly #death café this weekend. As always I’m struck by the disconnect between the oft-heard refrain of “people don’t want to talk about death” and the consistent relief and gratitude folks express when coming to a café where they can open up about it. #deatheducation #endoflife #grief

Thrilled to share that DUE DATE: A LIBRARY DEATH SALON will be moving to Mashup Food Hall in Nulu! Join us on June 18 to talk tips for keeping funeral costs down.

#deathpositive #louisville #deathsalon #deathcafe #funeral
An old-fashioned library borrowing card sits in the center of a black background. On top, white and green typewriter text reads: Death is hard enough without the sticker shock. The Thrifty Corpse. According to the National Funeral Directors Association, the median cost of a funeral with burial in the U.S. is well over $8,000. Yikes! Let's talk tips for keeping death costs down. Due Date: A Library Death Salon. Mashup Food Hall. June 18, 2026 at 7pm. Below is the logo for My Parents Are Dead: What Now? featuring a cartoon skull with heart eyes atop a lime green heptagon.

One of the quiet things I do is get people in my community to talk about death and end-of-life "stuff". Wills, directives, body disposal, health, palliative care, frame of reference, expectations, wished, dreams, and desires.

Most people encounter death for the first time as an emergency — no rehearsal, no vocabulary, no prior relationship with the territory. Death cafes exist to fix that. Tea, cake, honest conversation. No crisis required.

Research suggests these conversations can reduce anxiety about death, build community, and strengthen emotional resilience, particularly in a U.S. culture described as both "death-anxious" and youth-focused.

The stuff that comes before death is nearly as confusing as the stuff that comes after death. Join us at Mashup Food Hall ONE WEEK FROM TODAY to share your experiences with end-of-life care so we can all learn together.

#louisville #deathpositive #deathcafe #hospice #endoflifecare #palliativecare
An old-fashioned library borrowing card sits on a black background. On top of the image, white and lime green typewriter text reads: Forget the funeral. How does hospice work? Not quite dead. There’s a lot of misinformation out there regarding end-of-life care. What’s the difference between hospice and palliative care? What costs will Medicare and Medicaid cover, if any? Join us to share your experiences and set the end-of-life record straight. Due Date: A Library Death Salon. Mashup Food Hall. September 17, 2026 at 7pm. At the bottom is the logo for My Parents Are Dead: What Now? featuring a cartoon skull with heart eyes atop a lime green heptagon.

Have you ever attended a death cafe? I love hosting them; you never know what will will be shared but it's nearly always profound, and it's a gift to sit in a circle and practice deep listening as people share joys, fears, & sorrows. www.cnn.com/2026/05/01/h... #deathcafe #UU #mortality #deathdoula

It was really fascinating talking to Hannah about the death cafes she runs.

People meet up over cake and coffee to talk about death to make the conversations surrounding it less scary.
