Reimagine End of Life is a week exploring big questions about life and death through art, creativity, and conversation. For the last few months, artists, storytellers, healthcare professionals, and innovators across all five boroughs of New York City have been uniting to create a unique week of events that will prove to be reflective of this city’s diversity and spirit. With over 75 events set to explore death and celebrate life from every perspective, we invite you to join us in questioning how we think about our most universal experience.
