Living grief

Stories of loss, memory, and identity

Living Grief is a public archive created to document and honor how Minnesotans experience and understand loss across cultures, generations, and communities. Through personal video and audio reflections, the archive examines how memory, identity, spirituality, family, and place shape our experiences of grief. By preserving these stories, Living Grief creates a lasting record of perspectives that are often held privately or passed through families and communities, while inviting greater understanding of the many ways we live with loss.
