The location listing will tell you where and when you can view the boards live, together with the series of related events, talks and workshops inviting people to sing, laugh, dance and maybe cry through collective moments of figuring out how to better celebrate new life, grieve, live well and prepare for the end.

All scheduled events are free.
In some locations there will be a steward at specific times where you can be guided to submit a name.
