With characteristic wit, Chast will discuss caring for aging parents, sharing her uniquely humorous yet poignant perspective on the sometimes absurd, sometimes exasperating journey through their final years.

Tickets ($150), sponsorships and ads are on sale now, with proceeds supporting SilverSource’s work to improve the quality of life of older adults and provide financial support for those in need.
