Songs to Remember

Monday, May 1st
3:00-4:00 pm

You’ve probably had the experience of hearing a song on the radio or in a movie that instantly brought you back to a memory or time from the past. In this workshop, you are invited to choose 1-2 songs that help you grieve, honor, and connect with a loved one who has passed away. We will take turns listening to each others’ songs and discussing the meaning behind the music.

Registrants must identify their song(s) prior to meeting and share this information with the facilitator beforehand. Registrants may attend as many times as they wish. Four registrants are required to hold this free workshop.
