Living Love: Story & Grief Circle

On the last Wednesday of each month, from 5-6pm, join us at the West Tisbury Library for “Living Love: Story & Grief Circle.” Meets May 27, June 24, July 29, August 26 & September 30. No sign up required. Free and open to the public.

Living Love draws from one of the most enduring human rituals: the talking circle. Held by Melissa Knowles and rooted in her own lived experience of loss, this monthly gathering brings people together in small groups to share how love and loss continue to shape our lives—through conversation and creative practices, including journaling and the sharing of photographs and personal items that reflect those we carry.

Together, we consider the ways our relationships continue with those who have died—including moments that may feel spiritual, intuitive, or difficult to explain. Between sessions, participants are invited to borrow cameras and join Melissa for photo walks, using photography to notice what feels meaningful and to bring these reflections back into the circle.
