Hawaii Storytellers: How I Live With Dying

From the event description:

Civil Beat in partnership with Hawaii Arts Alliance and Waiwai Collective presents an evening of live storytelling by members of our local community on the theme of death and dying. Each storyteller will share an account of remarkable past events in their life, illuminating their personal relationship with matters related to mortality and life's impermanence. Together, we'll take in these narratives of strength, love, loss, science, spirituality and grief in a safe, intimate venue. The storytellers receive professional coaching from Reiko Ho, a local director, performer, writer and sensei. 

When: Friday, Sept. 6, 5:30-7:30 p.m.
Where: Ka Waiwai, 1110 University Ave.
