But what if we were to look at them differently? Despite understandable fear and denial, we may have very good reasons to want to learn more about death and dying. Thinking about and experiencing mortality�our own and that of others�can make us our lives richer, deeper and more valuable to us. Mortality in truth is the intensification of life.
This September, check out the first Melbourne edition of the Festival of Death and Dying. There will be over 20 participatory workshops, performances, talks and ceremonies on different aspects of death and dying over two days. In addition to talks and discussions, you will have experiences, which do justice to the full spectrum of what is at stake in mortality.
