SUMMARY:Death Cafe
DESCRIPTION:Death Cafes are opportunities to gather and increase awareness of death so that we might make the most of our finite loves. Shelburne resident\, Dr. Nick Marconi has been leading local death cafes for over 10 years (most recently at Village Wine and Coffee). Now he’s here with us at the Pierson Library in a new monthly series of intimate discussions\, where we’ll vote concerns\, share stories\, question and think together about this hard fact of life. It’s not always easy. But when we share\, heart to heart\, we build community and experience a special joy that enhances our lives now.  To register please call the library at 802-985-5124.
