VIRTUAL CLASS

Losing someone special can be a tough experience to put into words. But when we allow ourselves to tap into the memories we shared with that individual – both good and bad – it can help us truly heal.

Local writer and journalist Jenn Walter intimately understands the ups and downs of this healing process through writing. After losing her dad in 2018, she penned several essays for magazines and her personal newsletter about her relationship with her father. Not only have these stories helped her process grief, but they also spurred sincere connections with others who have lost a loved one.

Join Jenn for a discussion about using memoir as a tool for healing, connection, and reflection in the face of grief.
