Join Grieve Leave for a Sad Hour at The Coffee Bar at The Durham on Wednesday, April 29 from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM.

This isn't a support group or a heavy lecture—it’s a Sad Hour. It’s an opportunity to meet others in the community, share space, and enjoy a curated menu of non-alcoholic beverages in a beautiful setting.

Your $15 ticket includes one specialty coffee or craft mocktail and access to a curated cheeseboard with light snacks. Physical drink tickets will be provided upon arrival. Additional food and beverages are available for purchase.

Whether we’re sharing stories or playing a lighthearted round of "Grief Bingo," this is a night for community and honest conversation. Space is limited to 20 guests, so reserve your spot today!

Wreck Your Feelings: A Mother’s Day Sad Hour
Wreck it Rage Room, 4122 Bennett Memorial Rd. Suite 105, Durham, NC 27705
May 10, 2026 12:00 PM

Mother’s Day can bring up a lot. Grief, complicated memories, longing, anger, or simply the feeling that the day does not fit your story. Join us on Sunday, May 10th  at 12pm at Wreck It Rage Room for a special Sad Hour where we will channel those feelings into something a little more smashable.

Participants will have access to 120 small to medium breakable items, 4 large items, and 2 extra large items to safely destroy using tools like hammers, sledgehammers, crowbars, and mallets. Personal protective equipment will be provided, and trained staff will lead a safety briefing and supervise the session to ensure a safe experience.

Sometimes the best way to move through hard feelings is to break a few things together. Tickets are $25 and include your full rage room session followed by food and drinks once we’re done smashing.
