Common Shade: A Discussion with Anna Sale of WNYC’s Death, Sex, and Money
Common Shade: A Discussion with Anna Sale of WNYC’s Death, Sex, and Money
On her podcast Death, Sex & Money, Anna Sale talks with writers, actors, adventurers - and everyday people - about some intensely personal topics. She gets her guests to open up about things that we tend to worry about often but openly discuss much less frequently - including death. For this year's first installment of Common Shade, we'll welcome Anna to Green-Wood's Historic Chapel and get her to do the talking. Common Shade host Evan Michelson will sit down with Anna to discuss her podcast, the allure of those tough topics, and her own experiences with life's (and death's) inevitabilities. Questions and discussion from the audience will follow.

(Sold Out) Gangland New York: The Places and Faces of Mob History
(Sold Out) Gangland New York: The Places and Faces of Mob History
From the Bowery Boys and the Five Points Gang in the 19th century, to the rise of the Jewish “Kosher Nostra” and the ascendance of the Italian Mafia, mobsters have played a major role in the city’s history, lurking just around the corner or inside that nondescript building. A cadre of powerful and often dangerous men once held sway over myriad New York neighborhood - their home turf – and some of those men now rest in Green-Wood.
Join author Anthony M. DeStefano as he traces organized criminal activity in the five boroughs from the 19th century to today. DeStefano will illuminate not only the exploits of New York gangsters, but also the real-life, New York locations of some of the deadliest and most significant mob action.

(Sold Out) Designing for Death: Green-Wood’s Extraordinary Mausoleums Trolley Tour
(Sold Out) Designing for Death: Green-Wood’s Extraordinary Mausoleums Trolley Tour
There are over 700 mausoleums dotting the Green-Wood landscape, and although they are much smaller in scale than the great buildings of New York, they are not lacking for architectural significance and merit. Scores of prominent New Yorkers are buried in Green-Wood and oftentimes, the same architects who were designing impressive homes in the city were also tapped to build within Green-Wood’s 478 acres. Join expert tour guide Ruth Edebohls for a look at the fabulous architectural designs hidden within Green-Wood’s rolling hills. You’ll visit structures designed by renowned architects including Ernest Flagg, Richard Upjohn and Son, Stanford White and more.
Green-Wood’s public programs are made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature, as well as the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs.
