Navigating Grief During Holidays (and Anytime)

Come join us in December to explore this universal topic:  whatever we may celebrate, losing or missing a loved one at holidays (or birthdays & other milestones) can certainly compound our grief.  How do we hold space for that added emotion, as well as honor the lives of those we’ve lost?


Lantern Making Workshop with Robin Davis

Center for Solace invites you to be part of its magical Annual Lantern Walk on November 7 — and this year, there’s a special twist! You can create your very own lantern to carry during the walk, adding a personal glow to this heartwarming community tradition.

Join artist Robin Davis for a fun, hands-on lantern-making workshop on October 15 and 22, from 4–6 PM in the downstairs room at St. Michael’s Episcopal Church, 16 Bradley Ave, Brattleboro. Open to all ages — kids will love it, and adults will too! Come craft, connect, and get ready to shine.


Annual Lantern Walk and Ceremony of Remembrance

Center for Solace invites you to be part of a beautiful tradition as we once again light up Main Street with our Annual Lantern Walk — a moving evening of remembrance, community, and hope.

On Friday, November 7, from 5:30–7:00 PM, we’ll gather at the Brattleboro Common on Park Place and begin with a heartfelt Ceremony of Remembrance, then walk together down Main Street, lanterns in hand, lighting the way with the love and memories we hold for those we’ve lost.
