Join authors Beth Winegarner, Loren Rhoads, and Amy Shea at the beautiful grounds of the San Francisco Columbarium, as they delve into the rich, often overlooked world of cemeteries and burial grounds, exploring how these spaces tell the stories of communities, culture, and history. From personal reflections to historical investigations, these writers shed light on the lives of the dead--and what they reveal about the living. Together, these authors offer a compelling conversation about death, memory, erasure, and the power of writing to preserve the stories found in places most people overlook.
