Experience the most magnificent and historic 478 acres in New York City. Join our expert tour guide to hear fascinating stories of Green-Wood’s permanent residents, see breathtaking views of Manhattan, tread where George Washington and his troops fought the Battle of Brooklyn, and much more. Click the event title above for more information and to purchase tickets.
There are few places more atmospheric than a cemetery at dusk - and Green-Wood is top notch when it comes to beauty and atmosphere. Normally in operation only during daylight hours, this special event will lead you on a twilight tour of the expansive grounds. 
Follow veteran Green-Wood tour guide Ruth Edebohls to the less-seen southern side of the cemetery, where monuments and mausoleums have many fascinating stories to tell. Hear the stories of the Park Slope plane crash of 1960, "Truth Seeker" D. M. Bennett, and many more. 
In the era of Madoff and Ponzi, America has all but forgotten about the original king of the swindle, Ferdinand Ward. Join Geoffrey Ward, acclaimed historian and great-grandson of Ferdinand, to delve into the sordid details of this sweet-talking con man. 
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.
