SUMMARY:Spring Plant Walk with the Next Epoch Seed Library
DESCRIPTION:Spring is a great time to meet some of the wild\, weedy\, and resilient plants who make their homes in Green-Wood’s urban meadows! Join Ellie Irons and Anne Percoco of the Next Epoch Seed Library for a socially distanced\, multisensorial walking tour focused on spontaneous urban flora. As we find and interact with individual plants\, we’ll consider the role of plant-human reciprocity in ecosystem function\, and how different management strategies impact our plant neighbors and the many other life forms who rely on them. We’ll also make a visit to the Cemetery’s rewilding experiment “Rethinking Urban Grasslands\,” where we’ll meet some of the vegetal collaborators who are helping make it happen. \n\n\n\nLocation: Check-in takes place in the meadow at the Main Entrance at Fifth Avenue and 25th Street. Look for signage. \n\n\n\n\n\n$25/ $20 for members. There are no paper or e-tickets. Attendees will be checked in by name.

SUMMARY:Birding in Peace
DESCRIPTION:Courtesy of Jennifer Kepler.\n\n\n\nBefore our gates open to the general public\, birding expert Rob Jett leads these peaceful Sunday morning walking tours to discover the many birds that call Green-Wood home. Green-Wood’s official birding checklist is available to pick up from the security guard at the Main Entrance on 25th Street or to print here. \n\n\n\nPlease note: All walking tours traverse hilly and at times uneven terrain. Comfortable footwear is suggested.  \n\n\n\n\n\nTickets are $20/$15 for members. There are no paper or e-tickets. Attendees will be checked in by name. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGet Tickets\nGet Tickets on Eventbrite\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEarly-Spring Migration \n\n\n\nOur April tours will be a feast for the ears and eyes with the trilling song of pine warblers and drumming pronouncements of woodpeckers on newly blossoming trees (including magnolias\, maples\, quinces\, and dogwoods). We’ll discover thousands of songbirds resting before their trip farther north as well as arriving herons and egrets at Green-Wood’s glacial ponds. \n\n\n\nPeak Spring Migration \n\n\n\nFrom ruby-throated hummingbirds to over twenty species of colorful wood warblers\, our peak migration tours will feature many of the 163 bird species that have been recorded at Green-Wood during the month of May. Beginning just after sunrise\, we will experience spring’s dawn chorus at the most active time of day for birds. \n\n\n\nSummer Birding \n\n\n\nIn July we should see the offspring of our resident red-tailed hawk bravely preparing to leave the nest. Warbler songs will be replaced by chirring cicadas and the tweets of fledgling birds. Butterflies and dragonflies are abundant. By late-July\, expect the arrival of the first southbound migrants. \n\n\n\n\n\nNot a Member?\n\n\n\nClick here for all of our membership levels and information. \n\n\n\nAlready a Member?\n\n\n\nClick the gray tickets button to activate the Eventbrite pop-up\, then click Enter promo code.

SUMMARY:Graveyards to Green-Wood: The Evolution of NYC’s Burial Grounds
DESCRIPTION:Before Green-Wood was founded in 1838\, churchyards\, potter’s fields\, and other graveyards were the final resting places for New York City’s dead. These early burial sites were a far cry from the romantic pastoral landscapes of the cemeteries that were to come\, during the Rural Cemetery Movement. Nonetheless\, they provide valuable insight into perspectives on death in early New York—telling us not just about the dead\, but the living. Archeologist Dr. Elizabeth D. Meade joins Green-Wood Historian Jeff Richman for a lively discussion about the pre-Green-Wood fate of the dead. Dr. Meade\, whose recently published doctoral dissertation\, “‘Prepare for Death and Follow Me:’ An Archaeological Survey of the Historic Period Cemeteries of New York City\,” will share some of her extensive research into the hundreds of burial sites across the city’s deathscape. Her fascinating work can be viewed at www.cemeteriesofnyc.com. \n\n\n\n\n\n$9 / $4 for members.

SUMMARY:Humane Insight: African American Suffering & Death
DESCRIPTION:Gerard Fortune\, Gede (Ghede\, Guede)\n\n\n\nThroughout American history\, images of wounded and dead Black bodies have pervaded the cultural sphere\, including the graphic brutality of the 1834 Lalaurie affair; Emmett Till’s murder and funeral; and the devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina. Questioning the role of the role of the spectator and the victim\, Dr. Courtney R. Baker’s book Humane Insight (2015) explores the uses of Black suffering and death in African American liberation movements. In this presentation\, Dr. Baker will share her discoveries from this research\, highlighting the evolution of African Americans’ relationship to civic policies and the concept of humanity as well as the central role that African American women have played in rendering mourning as a form of activism. \n\n\n\nDr. Baker is a scholar of African American visual culture and liberation\, and is an Associate Professor in the Department of English at University of California  Riverside. You can learn more about her work and current research on her website. \n\n\n\nThis program is presented as part of a new Death Education series at Green-Wood\, Death & Us.

SUMMARY:Birding in Peace
DESCRIPTION:Courtesy of Jennifer Kepler.\n\n\n\nBefore our gates open to the general public\, birding expert Rob Jett leads these peaceful Sunday morning walking tours to discover the many birds that call Green-Wood home. Green-Wood’s official birding checklist is available to pick up from the security guard at the Main Entrance on 25th Street or to print here. \n\n\n\nPlease note: All walking tours traverse hilly and at times uneven terrain. Comfortable footwear is suggested.  \n\n\n\n\n\nTickets are $20/$15 for members. There are no paper or e-tickets.

We’ll discover thousands of songbirds resting before their trip farther north as well as arriving herons and egrets at Green-Wood’s glacial ponds. \n\n\n\nPeak Spring Migration \n\n\n\nFrom ruby-throated hummingbirds to over twenty species of colorful wood warblers\, our peak migration tours will feature many of the 163 bird species that have been recorded at Green-Wood during the month of May. Beginning just after sunrise\, we will experience spring’s dawn chorus at the most active time of day for birds. \n\n\n\nSummer Birding \n\n\n\nIn July we should see the offspring of our resident red-tailed hawk bravely preparing to leave the nest. Warbler songs will be replaced by chirring cicadas and the tweets of fledgling birds. Butterflies and dragonflies are abundant.

SUMMARY:Agnes Northrop: Tiffany Stained-Glass Artist
DESCRIPTION:Louis Comfort Tiffany (1848–1933)\, who is interred at Green-Wood\, remains a giant among American artists. Best known today for the stained-glass lamps produced in his studio\, he also was a painter\, interior designer\, and a pioneer in American glass. But he could not create all that art alone. Indeed\, Agnes Northrop (1857–1953)\, who went to work for Tiffany in the 1880s\, designed some of that firm’s most magnificent stained-glass windows. And now\, after all these years\, she is getting credit for doing so! Join host Green-Wood Historian Jeff Richman and Lindsy Parrott\, director and curator at the Neustadt Collection of Tiffany Glass in Queens—an expert on all things Louis Comfort Tiffany—as they discuss Northrop’s extraordinary work. \n\n\n\n\n\n$9 / $4 for members.

SUMMARY:Birding in Peace
DESCRIPTION:Courtesy of Jennifer Kepler.\n\n\n\nBefore our gates open to the general public\, birding expert Rob Jett leads these peaceful Sunday morning walking tours to discover the many birds that call Green-Wood home. Green-Wood’s official birding checklist is available to pick up from the security guard at the Main Entrance on 25th Street or to print here. \n\n\n\nPlease note: All walking tours traverse hilly and at times uneven terrain. Comfortable footwear is suggested.  \n\n\n\n\n\nTickets are $20/$15 for members. There are no paper or e-tickets. Attendees will be checked in by name. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGet Tickets\nGet Tickets on Eventbrite\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEarly-Spring Migration \n\n\n\nOur April tours will be a feast for the ears and eyes with the trilling song of pine warblers and drumming pronouncements of woodpeckers on newly blossoming trees (including magnolias\, maples\, quinces\, and dogwoods). We’ll discover thousands of songbirds resting before their trip farther north as well as arriving herons and egrets at Green-Wood’s glacial ponds. \n\n\n\nPeak Spring Migration \n\n\n\nFrom ruby-throated hummingbirds to over twenty species of colorful wood warblers\, our peak migration tours will feature many of the 163 bird species that have been recorded at Green-Wood during the month of May. Beginning just after sunrise\, we will experience spring’s dawn chorus at the most active time of day for birds. \n\n\n\nSummer Birding \n\n\n\nIn July we should see the offspring of our resident red-tailed hawk bravely preparing to leave the nest. Warbler songs will be replaced by chirring cicadas and the tweets of fledgling birds. Butterflies and dragonflies are abundant. By late-July\, expect the arrival of the first southbound migrants. \n\n\n\n\n\nNot a Member?\n\n\n\nClick here for all of our membership levels and information. \n\n\n\nAlready a Member?\n\n\n\nClick the gray tickets button to activate the Eventbrite pop-up\, then click Enter promo code.

Out of that reflection came America/Beautiful\, a project where she commissioned more than seventy of the leading composers in the United States to each write a variation on America the Beautiful.The result is a sonic picture of Kwon’s adopted country\, painted in all of its sprawling complexity\, which ultimately seeks to find the beauty at the heart of the American experiment\, and to realize its credo of e pluribus unum (out of many\, one). \n\n\n\nThe Short Story\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAlthough these past few years have left us deeply divided\, America/Beautiful seeks to embrace our diversity\, and remember that by understanding\, appreciating\, and celebrating our differences\, we become stronger both as individuals and as a country.  \n\n\n\n$80.
