Motherless Day at Kou | May 11, 2025

  • Kou Studios 2008 Manitoba Street Vancouver, BC, V5Y 3V3 Canada (map)

A day of commemorating & celebrating the moms we no longer have with us.

For those without moms, Mother’s Day can feel like a day to get through rather than a day to celebrate. But instead of sitting it out, we’re reclaiming it—by gathering, sharing, and honouring the women who shaped us.

Welcome to Motherless Day. A gathering for those without mothers, in support of the Centre for Addiction & Mental Health (CAMH).

Join us for a meaningful event at KOU Studios filled with connection, creativity, and community. We’ll share stories over food & drinks, create memory collages with SAD Magazine, set intentions with Carolyn Ann Budgell, build floral bouquets, and more. Most importantly, we’ll spend the day with people who truly get it—without needing to say a word (though let’s be honest, we’ll have plenty to say)!

Programming includes:

*Memory Collaging with SAD Magazine
*Breathwork and intention setting by Carolyn Ann Budgell
*On-site live poetry by Ars Poetica
*Guided journaling & card-writing
*Bouquet-building by Flower House Studios
*The best of pastries, focaccia and beverages by local products
...and so much more!

PS - just like how grief doesn’t end when the day does, neither does this experience. You’ll take home a tote filled with meaningful keepsakes—small, intentional reminders that our moms' love and memories live on.
