The Longest Night

  • Goose Nest 912 East Davenport Street Iowa City United States (map)

The Winter Solstice, or longest night, offers an invitation to embrace the darkness as a time for rest, reflection and honoring loss, while holding onto the promise of returning light.

The house will be staged with rooms full of simple grief rituals to explore at your own pace: candle-lighting, memory objects, writing prompts, holiday tradition alternatives, and places to rest or reflect.

A selection of refreshments will be provided. Come as you are. Use the space as you wish. You don’t have to carry the longest night alone.

Hosted by death doulas, Lauren Gil Hayes and Annie Brownsberger.

Suggested donation of $20.
