Celebrate the most romantic of holidays a bit differently this year, with a cozy winter trolley ride at Green-Wood. Expert guide Ruth Edebohls will lead this tour highlighting historic power couples, romantic monuments, and tales of love everlasting - some triumphant, others grim. Before your tour begins, peruse Civil War love letters on display in the Historic Chapel, courtesy of the Brooklyn Historical Society's historic archives. Then grab a coffee, tea, or hot chocolate to ensure a toasty ride on the Green-Wood trolley! |

In honor of Black History Month, Green-Wood presents a special trolley tour with Historian Jeff Richman. Though segregation has certainly been an issue in the city, Brooklyn and New York City also have long histories of diversity and civil rights activism. This trolley tour will examine the life and accomplishments of many prominent black New Yorkers, as well as several abolitionists also working for freedom in America. |
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.
