 \n🕘 Doors open at 12.30pm for a 1.00pm start \nEvent Schedule & Highlights: \n💃 1 – 2.30pm \nMemento Mori Danse Macabre Movement Workshop with Diane Busuttil\nFacilitated by Diane Busuttil\, founder of Creative Caring Australia\, this movement workshop draws on the historic Danse Macabre tradition to explore mortality through dance and embodiment. Diane’s extensive experience in socially engaged dance and community wellbeing invites you to reflect on death’s universality through creative physical movement that connects body\, memory\, and meaning. \n❀ 2.35pm | come to get your weaving materials
 \nMemento Mori Heart Hoop Weaving & Creative Stories with Jewelz the Hoola Doola\nJoin Jewelz A Hoopz — Sydney-based multidisciplinary artist\, performer\, and death doula — to weave a heart-shaped hoop catcher that you can fill with memories. Bring photos\, mementos\, words\, feathers\, or materials of your own to personalise your creation\, or use the supplies provided. Spin the heart\, weave it\, and let’s dance with life and mortality together. Heart hoops\, tape\, wool\, and strips of materials will be supplied. We will be weaving our heart hoops as we chat in the death cafe\, see below. \nđŸ§”Â 3.00 – 5.00pm |  \nCark It CafĂ© a Death CafĂ© focus on Funerals\, Living Wakes & Endings Unwrapped\nWe’ll welcome a guest speaker (TBA) to share insight into the rituals of funerals and living wakes — helping us reframe these traditions with openness\, joy\, and personal meaning. \nAs we turn toward greener\, more sustainable outlooks\, there are many choices we can make for our final send-off. Making these decisions while we are living — and having conversations with those who will carry them out — takes the stress out of guessing what your wishes might be during a time of grief. \nOnce upon a time\, getting buried six feet under was the norm. Cremation has since taken over\, but other options now exist — green burials\, eco-friendly cremations\, and many other options. And of course\, if you want to join in the party\, you might want to think about a living wake before you “Cark It”! \nWe’ll discuss all things funeral — so you know your options\, whatever path you choose. \nHolding Space at Cark It CafĂ© \nWe’re joined by Jude Tynan (she/they)\, a skilled and compassionate Mental Health Social Worker and Family Therapist. Jude specialises in working with the LGBTIQ+ community\, survivors of adult and childhood trauma\, complex family dynamics\, and relationship difficulties.\nFrom 12:30–4:30pm\, Jude will be there to simply sit\, listen\, and hold space.\n👉 Learn more: opendialogue.com.au/jude-tynan \nđŸŽŸïžÂ Workshops are ticketed — from single tickets to day packages.\nNobody will be turned away for lack of funds — please email Jewelz at carkitcafe@gmail.com to make arrangements. \n☕ The Death CafĂ© is FREE\, but you must register to attend. You’ll also have the option to make a non-tax-deductible contribution to help cover event costs — should you wish to support. \nThis event also supports Myeloma Australia in memory of my Big Bad Baba — you can donate here: 🔗 justgiving.com/page/jewelz-cark-it-cafe \nAcknowledgements & Gratitude \nThis project is supported by the City of Sydney Creative Grants and the Dying to Know Day grants. \nBig thanks to: \n\nACON The Love Project\nDaisybox¼— for donating the strong\, simple\, and sustainable cardboard casket made from recycled cardboard\, weighing just 7kg\, and designed to be personalised with messages\, artwork\, and love.\nPalliative Care NSW\nDying to Know\n\nCome dance\, weave\, and create at the third stop on the Cark It CafĂ© journey — where storytelling and movement meet mortality\, and every step brings us closer to celebrating life and death with joy.
