And Green-Wood is proud to be the final resting place of over 5\,000 Civil War veterans and other contributors to the war effort. For one night\, Green-Wood will be transformed into a Civil War-era commemoration and festival\, with the Grand Procession as the main event – a spectacular walk across Green-Wood’s grounds\, aglow with 5\,000 honorary candles\, and featuring a brass band\, artillery fire\, a chorus\, cavalry horses\, and re-enactors in uniform. \nThe evening begins at 6:00 p.m. with Civil War music\, period games\, cooking demonstrations\, and re-enactors in Green-Wood’s meadow. Then\, beginning at 8:30 p.m. after the sun has set\, join a procession past 5\,000 candles\, led by cavalry horses\, musicians\, uniformed re-enactors\, and a Civil War artillery troop firing salute. After the procession has ended\, seize this unique opportunity to stroll Green-Wood’s grounds until midnight\, taking in the luminaries and commemorating the thousands of lives affected by this dramatic turning point in American history. Admission to Green-Wood’s new exhibition on the Civil War\, To Bid You All Good Bye: Civil War Stories\, will be free to all ticket holders throughout the night. \nThe Grand Procession covers about one mile. Walk may be hilly and strenuous. Appropriate clothing and shoes are recommended. \nAlso featured for one night only in Green-Wood’s Civil War-era Catacombs: a special artistic interpretation of the statistics\, numbers\, and information on the 5\,000 Civil War contributors interred in Green-Wood. Project organizer and artist Michele Gorman has led a team of graduate students from New York University’s Interactive Telecommunications Program (ITP) to create visual representations of these veteran-related facts and figures. Presented in Green-Wood’s atmospheric catacombs\, the artwork shows how the stories of an overwhelmingly large number of veterans can be considered together to create a new way to think about the casualties of war. The moving presentation\, entitled This is My House of Green Grass: The Raw Retrieval of the Civil War\, will be free to all ticket holders throughout the night. \n$20 for members of Green-Wood and BHS/$25 for nonmembers. \nAll events will take place rain or shine.

SUMMARY:Pencil Passion
DESCRIPTION: \nRing in the new school year with a look at the hidden history inside your pencil case. Those age-old writing tools may seem humdrum\, but in the early years of pencil production in America\, the tiny tools were the focus of fierce competition. American companies\, including several in New York\, vied for customers through new ideas\, designs\, and advertisements. In Green-Wood’s Historic Chapel\, we’ll explore the history\, development\, and simple appeal of the pencil with Caroline Weaver\, lifelong pencil enthusiast and owner of the new Lower East Side shop CW Pencils. Caroline will discuss the crowded pencil market of the 19th and early 20th century\, including the innovations of successful pencil man Eberhard Faber\, buried at Green-Wood in 1879. Beautiful and varied examples of pencils from Caroline’s personal collection will be on display\, along with historic advertisements and other objects. After the talk\, the Green-Wood trolley will bring you to Faber’s monument to pay your respect to the pencil king – and do a grave rubbing using some of his storied graphite\, too.  \n \nThis event has two parts\, with separate tickets for each part: \n\nThe free talk in the historic Green-Wood chapel.\nA guided trolley tour immediately following the talk. Tickets are $15 for members of the Green-Wood Historic Fund and BHS and $20 for non-members.\n\nPlease include both free talk tickets and trolley tour tickets in your order if you would like to attend both parts of the event.

SUMMARY:Media Movers & Shakers\, Then & Now
DESCRIPTION: \nExplore the frenzied world of New York City news and media. This panel\, featuring Untapped Cities founder Michelle Young\, journalist and urban planner Julia Vitullo-Martin\, and Brokelyn News Editor David Colon\, will trace the early boom days of New York City newspapers to the current upheaval in media. In the 19th century\, the pioneers of news and publishing loomed large in New York society\, and they made their impact on the landscape\, too\, by building massive and imposing headquarters downtown. Many of these early players are now buried together at Green-Wood\, including Horace Greeley\, founder of the New York Tribune; James Harper\, founder of Harper & Brothers; and Henry Raymond\, founder of the New York Times. But the media world doesn’t stand still for long\, and our panelists will detail the seismic shifts the industry has endured in the 20th and 21st centuries. Media has moved from downtown flagships\, to uptown rented space\, to bloggers working from their living rooms. Where will it go next? Young\, Vitullo-Martin\, and Colon will take a stab at answering that question. Following the talk\, a trolley tour will visit the monuments of the great newspaper men of the 19th century. \n \nThis event has two parts\, with separate tickets for each part: \n\nThe free talk in Green-Wood’s modern chapel (directly to the right of the gothic arches at the 25th Street and 5th Avenue).\nA guided trolley tour immediately following the talk. Tickets are $15 for members of the Green-Wood Historic Fund and BHS and $20 for non-members.\n\nPlease include both free talk tickets and trolley tour tickets in your order if you would like to attend both parts of the event.
