Ars Moriendi, Ars Vivendi: The Art of Death, the Art of Life
Enjoy a thought-provoking presentation by Dr. Dianna Repp, Anthropology Faculty, at PCC’s Speakers’ Series. Repp will examine the common themes in death and dying across cultures, as well as end-of-life practices unique to specific cultures. The way we contemplate and prepare for death, for ourselves and those we love, shapes the way we die… and also the way we live our lives.

| Where: | PCC District Office Community Board Room (Building C) 4905 E. Broadway Blvd. [view map] |
