Join us for a very special Highlands End-of-Life Project fundraiser at the gorgeous Corner Store: a documentary screening with a Q&A afterwards with documentary subject Zenith Virago, and filmmakers Broderick Fox and Lee Biolos!

Zen & the Art of Dying is a portrait of Zenith (Zen) Virago, Australia’s premiere ‘deathwalker’ whose personal and professional experiences challenge our core assumptions about life and dissolve our fears around death.

Please come around 5.30pm for light refreshments - the documentary starts at 6.00pm.

We are thrilled to host this event with these extraordinary guests. All proceeds go directly to the Highlands End-of-Life Project.

More about Zenith

From her origins as a young mother in the UK, to her present day identity as a lesbian, activist, and self-described deathwalker in the idyllic seaside town of Byron Bay, Australia, Zenith Virago’s personal and professional experiences quietly challenge our core assumptions about life and dissolve our fears around death.

The most sought-after marriage celebrant in an increasingly commercialised wedding destination town, Zenith is also co-founder of the Australian Natural Death Care Centre, an organisation that provides end-of-life decision planning and DIY funeral alternatives to residents of Australia’s North Coast.

Zenith's work models a grassroots international Natural Death Care Movement that is gaining momentum as Baby Boomers begin to retire and are demanding more personalised, empowered, and meaningful choices around end-of-life matters, just as they did with the natural childbirth movement.

Her example, and the willingness of Byron Shire’s citizens to join her cause, invite each of us to reexamine and reclaim a more active role in how we live, love, and die.
