Queer Death Salon – When abusers and jerks die
April 23 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm
Free
This is a facilitated drop-in discussion space, with the purpose of building connection, skill, and resources for 2SLGBTQIA+ people navigating end of life in our personal lives and in our communities.
We are all present as community members and participants to discussion and resource sharing. Attendees are welcome to come with questions, stories, or special objects to share with the group. Some months, we may have a guest speaker or a community researcher for all or a portion of a session. Other months, there may be a predetermined topic of conversation for a deep-dive. These will be announced as they are scheduled.

April’s Queer Death Salon is for those impacted by the death of someone they’ve had a bad, difficult, or abusive relationship with.
Some questions to consider:
How has the death of this person/these people, impacted me?
How have I been expected to relate to this death?
How can I make sense of the relationship(s) we had when I’m the only one left?
Participants will have the opportunity to introduce topics and ask questions of the group.
