Barbara Becker’s highly anticipated memoir Heartwood: The Art of Living with the End in Mind reminds us of this cornerstone belief of death literacy. \n\n\n\nThe term “heartwood” refers to the core of a tree—the part that is no longer living\, but supports the newer growth rings that surround it. To Barbara\, it’s “a reminder to embrace the inseparability of life and death… a message of wholeness.” \n\n\n\nJoin us for this special virtual conversation with the author and her beloved Zen teacher Robert Chodo Campbell as they navigate the broad questions of the paradoxical marriage of life and death\, and delve into the meaningful personal stories Barbara shares in her book.  \n\n\n\n\n\nHeartwood is available for sale through our Brooklyn-based neighbor\, Uncommon Goods. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nRSVP Here\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n“In Heartwood\, Barbara Becker inspires us to follow our curiosity into a world that is both universal and a source of our uniqueness. And what could be better than that?”– Gloria Steinem \n\n\n\nBarbara Becker is a writer and ordained interfaith minister who has dedicated more than twenty-five years to partnering with human rights advocates around the world in pursuit of peace and interreligious understanding. She has worked with the United Nations\, Human Rights First\, the Ms. Foundation for Women\, and the Grameen Bank of Bangladesh\, and has participated in a delegation of Zen Peacemakers and Lakota elders in the sacred Black Hills of South Dakota. She has sat with hundreds of people at the end of their lives and views each as a teacher.  \n\n\n\nSensei Robert Chodo Campbell\, is a co-founder of the New York Zen Center for contemplative Care\, —a non-profit organization that focuses on the teaching of Zen and Buddhist practice with the goal to make them more accessible to people all around the world. The center delivers contemplative approaches to care through education\, personal caregiving\, and meditation practice. Chodo is a dynamic\, grounded\, and visionary leader and teacher: he has traveled extensively throughout the United States instructing in various institutions. Sixty-thousand people listen to his podcasts each year. His passion lies in bereavement counseling and advocating for change in the way our healthcare institutions work with the dying.  URL:https://www.green-wood.com/event/heartwood-an-evening-on-the-art-of-living-with-the-end-in-mind/ ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.green-wood.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/heartwood-featured.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20210517T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20210517T200000 DTSTAMP:20260404T030846 CREATED:20210429T175508Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210429T175631Z UID:10033398-1621274400-1621281600@www.green-wood.com SUMMARY:Breadths of Listening at Twilight DESCRIPTION:Gelsey Bell\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGet Tickets\nBuy Tickets on Eventbrite\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGet Tickets\nBuy Tickets on Eventbrite\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn this special site-specific program—part walking tour\, part performance—participants are led through Green-Wood’s winding paths and roads to encounter music embedded in and responding to the bucolic spring landscape.

In 2011\, British entrepreneur Jon Underwood brought this concept to discussions of the most universal topic of all: death. Underwood’s intention was to provide an opportunity to “increase awareness of death with a view to helping people make the most of their lives.” Today\, there are over 4\,400 Death Cafes in 26 countries around the world. \nGreen-Wood is proud to host monthly gatherings of the Death Café here in our beautiful\, modern chapel. Amy Cunningham\, death educator and creator of the Brooklyn-based blog TheInspiredFuneral.com\, invites participants to share their thoughts and feelings on death. It’s an opportunity for safe and open exchanges\, without an agenda. Tea and light snacks are provided. \n“A place for people to discuss our inevitable fate.” – Gothamist \n“It’s a reversal for American culture\, which for a long time has shied away from these conversations.” – Village Voice \n“[E]ncouraging people to talk about death more freely and naturally.” – Haaretz \nFree to attend\, RSVP recommended. Please register using the Eventbrite box below. \nThis program takes place in our Modern Chapel just to the right after passing through the Gothic Arches at the main entrance.

Learn more about some of the Cemetery’s most extraordinary and prodigious resting sites\, including those of seventeen-year-old Charlotte Canda\, aspiring Mayoral candidate John Anderson\, and John Matthews—America’s “soda fountain king.” \n\n\n\nWhile we can’t actually bring the bar or the drinks to you\, we can offer some history on tap!

In 2011\, Margaret K. Hofer\, now vice president and museum director at N-YHS was contacted by an antiques dealer who had come across a rare find: a sampler (a demonstration of embroidery technique) made by fifteen-year-old Rosena Disery in 1820\, while a student at New York’s African Free School. Hofer virtually joins Green-Wood Historian Jeff Richman\, to discuss how this one object helped to uncover the fascinating life story of Rosena (interred at Green-Wood as Rosanna Van Dyke) and her family\, who\, against the odds\, prospered in nineteenth-century New York City. \n\n\n\nThis conversation is part of our series of virtual programs about the history of Green-Wood and its permanent residents\, Zooming in on History. \n\n\n\n\n\n$9 / $4 for members.

Photo by Elizabeth Hoy. \n\n\n\nPresenters: Ellie Irons and Anne Percoco\n\n\n\nThe Next Epoch Seed Library (NESL) is an artist-run institution focused on collecting\, saving\, and sharing the seeds of wild urban plants (aka weeds). From sculptural installations and workshops to zines and rewilding interventions\, they work to create connections between plants and people in landscapes heavily impacted by human activity. In this talk\, Ellie Irons and Anne Percoco will discuss how they founded and developed NESL\, as well as their recent projects like the Deep Time Seed Burial series and ongoing Lawn (Re)Disturbance Laboratory. Through these experiential\, public-facing projects\, the NESL centers our plant neighbors as key participants in the struggle for ecologically just urban habitats. Artists Ellie Irons and Anne Percoco founded NESL in 2016. Based in Jersey City and Brooklyn\, the project also has a semi-permanent home in Troy\, New York at the Sanctuary for Independent Media’s NATURE Lab. \n\n\n\nThis conversation is part of our series of virtual programs about the horticulture and wildlife of Green-Wood\, Zooming in on Nature.  \n\n\n\n\n\n$5/Free for members\, RSVP required.

While contemporary memorials typically espouse a contemplative minimalism\, nineteenth-century monuments routinely spectacularized such disasters\, rendering destructive and violent scenes at great expense. Memorializing Disaster will chart the changes in these historic attitudes\, introducing visitors to some of the Cemetery’s most striking and extraordinary memorials\, including those dedicated to the sinking of the SS Arctic (1854) the Brooklyn Theatre Fire (1876)\, and the Park Slope/Miller Field air crash (1960). \n\n\n\nWhile we can’t actually bring the bar or the drinks to you\, we can offer some history on tap! Bring your own beverage–why not try our recommended cocktail of the evening–and raise a glass to the past as we stay connected through our latest series\, History Happy Hour. \n\n\n\n\n\n$9 / $4 for members.

In commemoration of the Green-Wood’s thousands of permanent residents who have served in the Armed Forces\, historian Jeff Richman will share a few of the most moving stories of veterans interred here. \n\n\n\nWe’ll see the graves of the Prentiss brothers\, Clifton K. Prentiss and William S. Prentiss\, who fought on opposite sides during the Civil War\, later to be buried side by side. We’ll learn about the lesser-known Mexican War lot\, where recently-installed bronze plaques mark the graves of men whose bodies were retrieved from far-off battlefields\, but whose graves remained  unmarked for more than a century. And we will see the final resting place of a man who fought in the Battle of Brooklyn\, the largest battle of the American Revolution\, which took place across the land that is now a part of The Green-Wood Cemetery. \n\n\n\n\n\n$9 / $4 for members.

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.
