SUMMARY:Book Launch: Welcome to Death Faire
DESCRIPTION:Book Launch: Welcome to Death Faire – Love\, Loss\, and Healing in a Small Southern Town is a soulful collection of stories\, poems\, and images born from a small town’s bold embrace of life\, death\, and everything in between. \nWhat began as a community gathering transformed by grief has grown into a movement that honors death as part of living fully.

Held at Forest Hall at Chatham Mills\, the event will feature readings\, songs\, and thoughts from the contributors. This will be part church service\, part book reading\, part poetry reading\, part community sing-along\, and mostly a beautiful night with many beautiful souls. The evening will close with book signings and a sense of community. \nYou’ll hear from Tami Schwerin (Curator)\, Lyle Estill\, and Gary Phillips\, with live music from Arlo Estill and friends. Other storytellers include Karen Howard\, Adrian Moreno\, Pepe Caudillo\, Godi Godar\, Jessalyn Kiesa\, Frank Phoenix\, Matt Zemon\, and Cathy Brooksie Edwards.
