The Workshop: Approaching middle age and beyond, we begin to face questions regarding aging. Of course, we are all aging - and the question of what it means to age well is important to all of us. Hence all ages are welcome in the workshop.

The workshop addresses some important questions regarding aging and facing finitude:

Where do we look for inspiration as we age in a culture bound to youth and materialism?

What are the limitations of aging - and what are the possibilities opened up?

We will look at finitude, time, death, remembering, and dreams about aging and death. Participants will be encouraged to share their ideas and experiences.
