“If you love, if you care, if you are alive, then grief is inevitable.”

You’ll find those words online at the website for Welcome Home of Chattanooga, which provides hospice care to people with terminal illness who have no other place to go at the end of life.

Last year, the nonprofit presented its first “Love + Grief” - described as “an evening honoring the space where grief meets joy.”

This week, the experience returns - on Thursday, starting at 6 PM - presented by Welcome Home and Understory at Old Bailey Station at 100 Bailey Avenue in Rossville.

Sherry Campbell is Welcome Home’s executive director.

Marsha Mills is with Rhyme N’ Chatt Interactive Poetry Organization.

Jules Downum is founder and creative director of Understory, an artist-led experiential agency.

Brandy Burgans is the owner and artist at Hustler’s Daughter, a custom private tattoo studio and gallery.
