SUMMARY:11 a.m. No Longer Forgotten: Honoring Officers from the Mexican-American War
DESCRIPTION: \n \nOn July 13\, 1848\, military men\, political leaders and citizens gathered at Green-Wood for the interment of six officers who served in the New York Infantry during the Mexican-American War. Five of them had died in the war; the sixth\, who had been sent to Mexico by New York City’s Common Council to retrieve the bodies of the others\, died of disease on his way back. A large lot was devoted to their burial and a suitable monument to their sacrifice was to be placed at its center. But that never happened and their graves were never marked. Now\, 164 years later\, each of them will finally have a memorial. Please join us for the unveiling of the bronzes that will mark the final resting place of these gallant officers who made the ultimate sacrifice. \nEvent: FREE. Meet at Green-Wood’s main gate. Reservations not required\, but requested so we may gauge attendance. \nTo make a reservation\, call 718-210-3080 or order online using the Ticket Information box below. Select your date\, ticket quantity\, and click to Order Now to be redirected to our Eventbrite ordering page. \nIf you are using a credit card linked to a non-U.S. address\, or if you’ve typed in a billing address that does not match that of your credit card\, you may see an error message when ordering.

SUMMARY:1 p.m. 'Clara and Mr. Tiffany' with Author Susan Vreeland Talk &Tour
DESCRIPTION:“Not just for art lovers; read it if you enjoy love\, human drama\, and American cultural history.” — Library Journal\n \nThe latest novel of bestselling author Susan Vreeland was inspired by the story of the real artist behind the iconic lamps of Green-Wood resident Louis Comfort Tiffany. Hundreds of personal letters brought to the attention of art historians in 2005 led to the electrifying discovery that it was a woman\, Clara Driscoll\, who invented and designed world-famous stained-glass lamps. Set against the Gilded Age world of formal balls and opera as well as the immigrant poverty of the Lower East Side\, Vreeland’s novel imagines the life of the artistic and progressive Driscoll.  \nThis event has two parts\, with separate tickets for each part: \n\nA free book talk by Susan Vreeland in the historic Green-Wood chapel\, ending with a book signing (just released in paperback).\n \nA trolley tour immediately following the talk\, led by Green-Wood’s historian Jeff Richman\, to the graves of the Tiffany family\, plus many contemporary designers and leading figures of the day. Tickets are $15 for members of the Green-Wood Historic Fund and $20 for non-members.\n\n \nSeating is limited for both the talk and the trolley tour\, and reservations are recommended. \nTo purchase tickets\, call 718-210-3080 or order online using the Ticket Information box below — click to Order Now or Enter Promotional Code (Member ID#) and you will be redirected to our Eventbrite ordering page. Please include both free talk tickets and trolley tour tickets in your order if you would like to attend both parts of the event. \nIf you are using a credit card linked to a non-U.S. address\, or if you’ve typed in a billing address that does not match that of your credit card\, you may see an error message when ordering.
