SUMMARY:Rowan Renee: The Perimeter Path
DESCRIPTION:Credit: Rowan Renee\n\n\n\n\n\nJune 3rd-September 4thFree and Open to the Public Daily10am–5pmHistoric Chapel \n\n\n\n\n\nIn-Person Event\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Perimeter Path is an immersive installation in the Historic Chapel by Green-Wood’s 2022 artist in residence\, Rowan Renee. Through extensive onsite research into the public burial lots around the Cemetery’s perimeter and the meticulous crafting of works in marble and glass\, Renee investigates how race and class influence memorialization. \n\n\n\nHistorically\, public lots at Green-Wood offered more affordable burial sites for the working class and poor. Many are located near the Cemetery’s perimeter\, where land was seen as less valuable because of its proximity to city streets. In a historic site like Green-Wood\, known for its stunning and elaborate Victorian era monuments\, Renee shifts visitors’ focus to the erasures and absences in the landscape that point to societal and systemic patterns of inequity.  \n\n\n\nClick here to read more about The Perimeter Path. To learn more about Renee’s creative process\, register for Art and Preservation: An Artist Talk with Rowan Renee (Monday\, July 10th\, 6pm) or To the Perimeter: A Walking Tour with Rowan Renee (Sundays\, July 23rd and September 3rd\, 10am).  \n\n\n\nRowan Renee (b. 1985\, West Palm Beach\, Florida) is a genderqueer artist currently working in Brooklyn\, NY. Their work addresses intergenerational trauma\, gender-based violence and the impact of the criminal legal system through image\, text and installation. They have been exhibited in solo exhibitions at Brooklyn’s Smack Mellon gallery (2021)\, FiveMyles in Crown Heights (2021)\, Aperture Foundation (2017)\, and Pioneer Works (2015).

SUMMARY:Funeral and Memorialization Planning 101
DESCRIPTION:Courtesy of Amanda King\n\n\n\n\n\nSome of the hardest—yet most important—conversations we’ll have during our lifetimes are about end-of-life planning. While this topic may seem daunting or scary\, being prepared is one of the best ways to care for and protect those you love. Let us help you give your family peace of mind\, while alleviating the stress and burden by planning before the time of need. \n\n\n\nAt this presentation\, New York State licensed funeral directors and members of the Green-Wood staff will share all that you need to know to get started on planning your own funeral\, or that of a loved one. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPrice: Free. Registration required.  \n\n\n\n\nGet Tickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn-Person Event(see details below)\n\n\n\n\n\nIt’s an evening of death education like no other. We will talk about how to prepare for death as we indulge in life’s small pleasures (sandwiches and drinks) in our Modern Chapel. \n\n\n\nWe’ll cover such questions as\, “what do I need to know to bring to the funeral home to get my end-of-life plans started?” “what forms of memorialization are offered at the Cemetery?” and “what should I know about the professionals that will be helping me?” \n\n\n\nFree. Registration required. Please consider a donation to the Green-Wood Historic Fund so that we can continue to offer free and low-cost programs throughout the year. \n\n\n\nBEFORE RESERVING YOUR SPOT\, PLEASE NOTE:\n\n\n\n\nCOVID-19 Policy: In accordance with New York State and CDC guidance\, masks are optional. Attendees must follow ALL instructions and guidance from Cemetery staff and ambassadors.\n\n\n\nWhere to go: Contactless check-in will take place at the Modern Chapel.

SUMMARY:Birding in Peace
DESCRIPTION:Credit: Evan Rabeck\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore our gates open to the general public\, birding expert Rob Jett leads these peaceful early morning walking tours to discover the many birds that make Green-Wood their home—at least temporarily. Green-Wood’s official birding checklist will be made available to all attendees\, or you can print it in advance here. \n\n\n\nAnd depending when you stop by\, you may see a variety of different species passing through: \n\n\n\n\n\nPrice: $20\, and $15 for members \n\n\n\n\n\n\nGet Tickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWalking Tour(see details below)\n\n\n\n\n\nEarly Spring Migration (April) \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 (May to mid-June) \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 (Late June to August) \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\nBefore Purchasing A Ticket\, Please Note:\n\n\n\n\nCOVID-19 Policy: In accordance with New York State and CDC guidance\, masks are optional.

SUMMARY:Rowan Renee: The Perimeter Path
DESCRIPTION:Credit: Rowan Renee\n\n\n\n\n\nJune 3rd-September 4thFree and Open to the Public Daily10am–5pmHistoric Chapel \n\n\n\n\n\nIn-Person Event\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Perimeter Path is an immersive installation in the Historic Chapel by Green-Wood’s 2022 artist in residence\, Rowan Renee. Through extensive onsite research into the public burial lots around the Cemetery’s perimeter and the meticulous crafting of works in marble and glass\, Renee investigates how race and class influence memorialization. \n\n\n\nHistorically\, public lots at Green-Wood offered more affordable burial sites for the working class and poor. Many are located near the Cemetery’s perimeter\, where land was seen as less valuable because of its proximity to city streets. In a historic site like Green-Wood\, known for its stunning and elaborate Victorian era monuments\, Renee shifts visitors’ focus to the erasures and absences in the landscape that point to societal and systemic patterns of inequity.  \n\n\n\nClick here to read more about The Perimeter Path. To learn more about Renee’s creative process\, register for Art and Preservation: An Artist Talk with Rowan Renee (Monday\, July 10th\, 6pm) or To the Perimeter: A Walking Tour with Rowan Renee (Sundays\, July 23rd and September 3rd\, 10am).  \n\n\n\nRowan Renee (b. 1985\, West Palm Beach\, Florida) is a genderqueer artist currently working in Brooklyn\, NY. Their work addresses intergenerational trauma\, gender-based violence and the impact of the criminal legal system through image\, text and installation. They have been exhibited in solo exhibitions at Brooklyn’s Smack Mellon gallery (2021)\, FiveMyles in Crown Heights (2021)\, Aperture Foundation (2017)\, and Pioneer Works (2015). They have received awards from the Aaron Siskind Foundation\, the Harpo Foundation and the Jerome Hill Foundation. You can learn more about their work on their website. \n\n\n\nThe Perimeter Path was made possible with support from the New York State Council on the Arts.  \n\n\n\nFree and open to the public\, no reservations are necessary. Please consider a donation to The Green-Wood Historic Fund so that we can continue to offer free and low-cost programs throughout the year.

Then\, we handed you Hot Dogs\, Hooch & Handel on a silver platter. And now\, we triumphantly top this trifecta off with a towering new trio: Tacos\, Tequila\, & Tavener’s Protecting Veil! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPrice: $65 (no member discount) \n\n\n\n\nGet Tickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn-Person Event(see details below)\n\n\n\n\n\nFor this large-scale outdoor event\, come share sunset swing jazz with the impeccable Grand Street Stompers\, taste some of New York’s finest tacos\, tequila\, mezcal and more. Then\, as darkness descends over Green-Wood’s looming Gothic Arch\, we’ll gather to hear the Contemporaneous ensemble\, alongside star cellist Joshua Roman\, as they premiere their new arrangement of Tavener’s transcendental\, searching meditation on faith\, and how our belief can protect us. \n\n\n\nPlease note: The drinks are free\, but tacos will be available for purchase from a selection of curated food trucks. \n\n\n\nThe Short Story\n\n\n\nThe first and second times were pretty charming\, but when it comes to food\, drink\, and classical music in beautiful Green-Wood Cemetery\, our third go ‘round is definitely the charm-iest…  \n\n\n\nSir John Tavener (January 28\, 1944–November 12\, 2013) was a British composer who was strongly influenced by spiritual texts. He is best known for his choral religious works\, including The Lamb (1982)\, The Protecting Veil (1988)\, and Song for Athene (1993). The Protecting Veil\, which as recorded by cellist Steven Isserlis became a best-selling album\, made Tavener one of the best known and popular composers of his generation. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor more information on this evening’s program and the performers\, visit Death of Classical’s website. \n\n\n\nBEFORE Purchasing Your Tickets\, PLEASE NOTE:\n\n\n\n\nTickets: There is no need to print tickets! Attendees will be checked in by name. \n\n\n\nWhere To Go: Check-in ONLY takes place at the Gothic Arch near the Main Entrance on Fifth Avenue and 25th Street (500 25th Street).\n\n\n\nBe On Time!: Check-in begins 15 minutes before your ticketed start time. We will start with a 45-minute reception at the Modern Chapel to enjoy a whiskey tasting and snacks (all free!)\, and the beauty of the Cemetery\, before the program begins. Tasting is for those 21 years of age or older with proof of ID.\n\n\n\nFor Your Comfort and Safety: The journey to and from the Catacombs takes approximately 20-30 minutes\, which includes walking over hilly and uneven terrain; proper footwear is recommended. A trolley service to and from the site will be available.\n\n\n\nRefunds and exchanges: Ticket sales are final. No exchanges or refunds unless the event is canceled.\n\n\n\nCOVID Policy: In accordance with New York State and CDC guidance\, masks are optional. Attendees must follow ALL instructions and guidance from Cemetery staff and ambassadors.\n\n\n\nFeeling Sick? Stay home if you are feeling sick or running a fever.

SUMMARY:Birding in Peace
DESCRIPTION:Credit: Evan Rabeck\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore our gates open to the general public\, birding expert Rob Jett leads these peaceful early morning walking tours to discover the many birds that make Green-Wood their home—at least temporarily. Green-Wood’s official birding checklist will be made available to all attendees\, or you can print it in advance here. \n\n\n\nAnd depending when you stop by\, you may see a variety of different species passing through: \n\n\n\n\n\nPrice: $20\, and $15 for members \n\n\n\n\n\n\nGet Tickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWalking Tour(see details below)\n\n\n\n\n\nEarly Spring Migration (April) \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 (May to mid-June) \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 (Late June to August) \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\nBefore Purchasing A Ticket\, Please Note:\n\n\n\n\nCOVID-19 Policy: In accordance with New York State and CDC guidance\, masks are optional.
