The 19th annual Day of the Dead celebrations in Mullumbimby will take place on Sunday, 9 November 3–5pm at the fig trees in Heritage Park.
‘Being in community, being in ceremony is one of the most powerful ways we can show our care and love when someone dies, and is physically gone from our lives,’ said Zenith Virago EO of the Natural Death Care Centre.
‘We offer this event each year, to bring death, dying and loss back into our own hands and hearts. We offer this day towards healing and acceptance. Death is the natural and sacred end of our lives, those we love are always a part of our lives as they continue to live on in our hearts.’
Zenith will conduct an inclusive Ceremony of Love and Remembrance at 4pm accompanied by the Big Little Town Choir. Children are welcome, but please keep them with you during the ceremony.
