    Presenter: Margaret Orchard 

    Join us in the Reif Gallery for a special book signing with longtime Womanspace member Marge Orchard as she shares her newly released book, One Door Opens and Another Closes, the third and concluding installment of her memoir.

    In this deeply personal volume, Marge reflects on her intense journey of self-discovery, thoughtfully revisiting the experiences that shaped her life and the lives of her siblings and mother. Through faith, reflection, and the transformative power of writing, she explores the emotional and psychological healing that led her toward understanding and peace.

    Following her talk, there will be a book signing and an opportunity to connect with Marge personally. Don’t miss this meaningful celebration of resilience, reflection, and literary achievement.

    Book will be available for purchase from the author.

    6:00–7:30 pm

    Facilitator: Rhiannon Yandell

    Learning to Live with Loss is a monthly grief support group for people learning how to live in a world that’s been changed by loss. Grief can affect the body, the mind, relationships, and identity — often all at once. Each session offers gentle education about how grief works, along with time for reflection and optional conversation. There’s no pressure to share, no timeline to follow, and no expectation to “move on.” The goal is simple: to make sense of grief, reduce isolation, and offer support along the way. This group is supportive in nature and not a replacement for individual therapy.

    Ever wanted to learn Mahjong (American version) but felt intimidated by the tiles and rules?

    Learning to Live with Loss is a monthly grief support group for people learning how to live in a world that’s been changed by loss. Grief can affect the body, the mind, relationships, and identity — often all at once. Each session offers gentle education about how grief works, along with time for reflection and optional conversation. There’s no pressure to share, no timeline to follow, and no expectation to “move on.” The goal is simple: to make sense of grief, reduce isolation, and offer support along the way. This group is supportive in nature and not a replacement for individual therapy.
