About Memory Bash

Memory Bash programming offers you the opportunity to celebrate and honor your loved one who died with remembrance activities. Interested families will have the opportunity to attend an in-person event or receive a care package filled with a variety of art projects and activities designed to keep the memories of your loved one alive. 

In person event: The in-person Memory Bash event will be held on Saturday, November 1 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Great Wolf Lodge (1700 American Blvd E, Bloomington, MN 55425). Lunch will be provided. Discounted waterpark passes and overnight rooms are available for registered families. Please contact [email protected] with any questions.

Please note: Registration for the in-person event has closed. You can still register below to receive a mailed box.

Mailed box: Mailed boxes will be sent out in mid-November. In addition to ideas and supplies, the package will include written instructions and links to online content.

Families do not need to have experience or ability in art or music to creatively participate. The activities are designed to be used in ways that suit your family best and are intended to promote healing and joy. Projects are able to be adapted to a variety of age levels. Memory Bash programming is available to:
  • Parents/families grieving the death of a child.
  • Children/youth grieving the death of a special person in their life.

If you have questions, contact bereavement services at [email protected] or 612-813-7216.
