The Grief Gallery’s Monthly Grief Gathering
Join grief coach and curator Charlene Lam for The Grief Gallery’s free monthly gathering for community connection and creative inspiration. We meet online on Zoom in our imaginary gallery space on the last Wednesday of the month at 2pm ET / 7pm UK time.
Next meetings:
- Wednesday Nov 27th at 2pm ET / 7pm UK time
- Sunday Dec 22nd at 2pm ET / 7pm UK time
We’ll start off with an introduction to The Grief Gallery (with visuals). Then we’ll open it up for conversation and sharing.
Feel free to bring an object to share in our virtual gallery space: An item or the story of an item you’ve kept after a loved one died.
Alternatively, there’s no pressure to turn on your camera or to speak if you do not wish to –– all curious and kind grievers are welcome!
During these gatherings, we:
- Make space for grief
- Share stories about our loved ones
- Get a taste of the Curating Grief approach
- Learn more about why the lens of curating and meaningful objects can be so powerful for grievers

HELLO!
I’m Charlene, grief coach and curator
After my mother died suddenly in 2013, I leaned into my creativity and instincts as a curator to guide myself through grief.
Now I help other people with their grief and experiences of loss. As founder and curator of The Grief Gallery™, I present exhibitions and events about grief and loss.
As a certified grief coach, I work 1:1 with individuals, using my Curating Grief framework to help people process grief and loss in a creative, accessible way.

Grief Events
I love speaking about grief, from death-related loss to life's many transitions. Visit my Speaker Page or contact me at hello@charlenelam.com to learn more.
