Night of Bright Stars
REGISTRATION IS NOW CLOSED FOR NIGHT OF BRIGHT STARS
Join us for an evening of community connection and reflection
Night of Bright Stars is a winter memorial event designed to dedicate time for communities to honour their grief, and the people in their lives who have died. It also creates a space for community reflection and connection. This free event features music, reflections, poetry, a slideshow of loved ones’ photos and more.
Returning in 2024: Guests are invited to hang a personalized keepsake on decorative trees as part of the ceremony.
