Time Of Remembrance: Contemplating Cycles of Life & Death

Time of Remembrance: Contemplating Cycles of Life & Death
In partnership with The Compassionate Friends of Houston Inner Loop
Pay What You Can Tickets $5-25 | In-person event with bench seating

Community members contemplated cycles of life and death with music, poetry, and personal reflections in observance of Dia de los Muertos, All Saint’s Day, and National Hospice and Palliative Care Month. This year's offering focused on the loss of children, with remarks from local peer support group The Compassionate Friends - Houston Inner Loop Chapter. Contemplative music was shared by DACAMERA Young Artists and guitarist Jesus Lozano. Attendees were invited to bring a small memento, photo, or item to place on a community altar in remembrance of those who have passed on (no food, drinks, or live flowers please).
