On Tuesday, February 18th, Janice Tosto, host of G-Town Radio show Grief Journeys, was a featured panelist for an event at The Kelly Writers House of The University of Pennsylvania titled “Grieving Together: A Conversation on Making Art About Grief and Loss”.
From the Kelly Writers House website:
Join us for a conversation about writing, making art, and having more open discussions around grief and loss, particularly through writing and podcasts. The conversation will feature Janice Jenkins Tosto, an award winning author and the creator and host of Grief Journeys, a podcast where Janice interviews Philadelphians about experiences with grief and loss, which airs monthly on Germantown Community Radio, and Jamie-Lee Josselyn, Associate Director for Recruitment and an instructor for the University of Pennsylvania’s Creative Writing Program and the Director of the Summer Workshop for Young Writers at the Kelly Writers House and host of Dead Parents Society, a podcast about writing about the loss of a parent. Janice and Jamie-Lee will be in conversation with Meg Gladieux (C’23, GED ’24), 2024–25 Junior Fellow Prize winner, whose project focuses on personal essays and reported memoir about grief, loss, and mental illness.
Grief Journeys explores and acknowledges the reality of grief and validates the experiences of grievers. The program celebrates love, life, and the people who live on in the hearts of grievers.
Grief Journeys airs the last Friday of every month at 7am
