🕯️ Holding Space: Honoring Love, Loss & the Stories We Carry
Every year on August 30, National Grief Awareness Day reminds us of the many ways grief touches our lives—and the importance of making space for it.
In recognition of this day, Pages & Parcels invites you to join us on Sunday, August 30 from 1–4 PM for Holding Space, a gentle afternoon of stories, conversation, remembrance, and connection.
📚 Meet Our Guest Authors
✨ Kate Lange, author of Just Follow My Light
✨ Dianne Deaton Vielhuber, author of Unraveling Together: Sharing the Threads of Grief
✨ Patti Cullen, author of Tears of Love
Each author brings a unique story and perspective on love, grief, and loss, reminding us that grief has many faces and that sharing our stories can help us feel a little less alone.
Throughout the afternoon, you’re invited to browse books, meet our guest authors, listen to conversations, light a candle, write the name of someone you miss, or simply sit quietly and reflect.
Grief doesn’t follow a timeline. Whether your loss is recent or something you’ve carried for many years, you are welcome here. ❤️

Come as you are. Stay for as long as you’d like. Together, we’ll hold space for love, loss, remembrance, and the stories we carry.
