Mortal Made

Let’s face it, none of us are getting out alive. 

This year's Mortal Made community death festival is exploring how we deal with our inevitable demise with a host of artists, makers and death practitioners.Tackling the great British death taboo we will offering space with subversive acts of moving and making to support the living. 

Mortal Made runs from Thursday 11th - Sunday 14th December @ Urban Room, Folkestone (aka Mugs) and The Loft Studio. 

Mortal Making will be on offer and open to all during the day so you can enjoy a coffee whilst designing a coffin, creating a skull talisman or offering to the Christmas tree and perusing the death library.                                                                                                                                                                    

This year we’ll be also be hosting a series of ticketed Death Salons across the four days for anyone that wants to delve deeper. There will be opportunities for Urn Decorating, Shroud Making & Wearing, Death & Permaculture, Pocket Shrines & Public Signs, Bone Dancing and Death Planning (The nuts and bolts of it).

On Friday and Saturday night the Send Off Social Club will open till late for anyone that needs to shake off the existential fear or decompress with our pop up mezcal bar and Memento Mori tattoo parlour.
