St. Johnsbury Athenaeum Wed. Sept. 13 7:00 pm Athenaeum Hall 2nd floor
A theatrical presentation/performance on the denial of death in American society, followed by a discussion with the performer – Darryll Rudy – who has Alzheimer's Disease and is in the process of dealing with his own death head-on.
Through 50+ years of Buddhist practice, 80 years of aging, and three years of living with his Alzheimer's diagnosis, Darryll has come to grips with the inevitability of his life's end. At the same time, he has noticed how we rarely – if ever – talk about or acknowledge the fact that we all will die someday. This event is an invitation to change that.
This event is free, ADA accessible, and open to the public.
