SUMMARY:Building the Brooklyn Bridge: In 3D!
DESCRIPTION:With Author/Historian Jeff Richman\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt’s a New York City icon like you’ve never seen it before! Jeff Richman\, Green-Wood’s historian  and author of the newly released book Building the Brooklyn Bridge 1869-1883: An Illustrated History with Images in 3D\, will take you on a virtual journey through how the Brooklyn Bridge came to be.  \n\n\n\nBuilt during an age of technological innovation\, the awe-inspiring structure connected for—the first time—the then independent cities of Brooklyn and New York. It was not only a modern engineering feat of extraordinary imagination\, fortitude\, and skill\, but a towering beacon of human triumph. Richman will share superb nineteenth-century images from his book\, many never before published\, to illustrate  how a small group of dedicated engineers and thousands of workers toiled for more than a decade to construct what was then the largest suspension bridge ever built.  And grab those 3D glasses (we’ll mail them to you!) to see the images come to life before you. You won’t want to miss this deep dive into what was once proclaimed the “eighth wonder of the world.” \n\n\n\n\n\n$9 / $4 for members. A Zoom link will be in your confirmation email upon registration. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGet Tickets\nGet Tickets on Eventbrite\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJeffrey I. Richman has been Green-Wood’s historian for over two decades\, but his fascination with New York City history has been lifelong. An avid collector\, many images in this presentation come from his own collection and that which he helped Green-Wood to amass. One of his fondest memories is of attending the one-hundredth anniversary of the bridge’s opening in 1983—just one milestone in his love affair with the Brooklyn Bridge. \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\nPLEASE NOTE: Everyone who signs up for this program by the end of day on Wednesday\, December 1st will be mailed a pair of 3D glasses. Tickets purchased after this date will not be mailed a pair of glasses. You will need these glasses to properly experience the program. When purchasing your ticket\, please make sure that the home address you enter on Eventbrite is your mailing address. \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:Death Café
DESCRIPTION:The Death Café is inspired by the centuries-old European salon (or café)\, an informal gathering to discuss philosophical\, political or scientific ideas.

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.

SUMMARY:Through the Eyes of Currier & Ives
DESCRIPTION:Charles Parsons for Currier & Ives\, Central-Park\, Winter: The Skating Pond\, 1862. Lithograph. Joslyn Art Museum\, Gift of Conagra Brands\, 2016.20.397\n\n\n\n“It’ll nearly be like a picture print from Currier & Ives… these wonderful things are the things we’ll remember all through our lives.” – Classic holiday song\, “Sleigh Ride” \n\n\n\nCurrier & Ives—two names that instantly evoke romantic images of nineteenth-century American Life. A winter sleigh barreling through the snow. A horse-drawn carriage rounding a tree-lined road. Well-dressed socialites strolling through Central Park. The Impact of this publishing powerhouse on visual culture in the US is immeasurable. In fact\, both Nathanial Currier and James Merritt Ives found their final resting place somewhere as idyllic as any of their massively popular lithographs—Green-Wood! \n\n\n\nGreen-Wood invites you to a virtual presentation on the lithographs of Currier & Ives\, exploring the insight and influence they had on nineteenth-century American life. Green-Wood Historian\, Jeff Richman will be joined by Amy Kurtz Lansing\, curator at the Florence Griswold Museum in Old Lyme\, Connecticut\, for a virtual tour of the current exhibition Revisiting America: The Prints of Currier & Ives. \n\n\n\n\n\n$9 / $4 for members. A Zoom link will be in your confirmation email upon registration. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGet Tickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSharing a selection from the 65 prints on view at the museum\, Lansing will give you a glimpse into “the Grand Central Depot for Cheap and Popular Prints” from the cozy comfort of your own home. From its founding in 1857 through its closure in 1907\, Currier & Ives produced thousands of original lithographs that hung in even more businesses and homes across the US. And they employed some of their time’s most talented artists: Louis Maurer\, Frances Palmer\, Charles Parsons\, Napoleon Sarony\, and Arthur Fitzwilliam Tait (a number of whom also now reside at Green-Wood!) \n\n\n\nRevisiting America: The Prints of Currier & Ives is on display at the Florence Griswold Museum through January 23\, 2022. Organized by the Joslyn Art Museum in Omaha\, Nebraska\, the exhibition draws from the museum’s extensive collection of nearly six hundred Currier & Ives prints. Click here to explore the exhibition.  \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\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:History Happy Hour: A Grave Concern Part 3
DESCRIPTION:Once a burial takes place\, it’s all about resting in peace for eternity\, right? Well\, that wasn’t always the case! In the nineteenth century\, the shockingly profitable “resurrection” business emerged. Grave robbers sneakily stole bodies from cemeteries under the cover of night to sell them to physicians\, teachers\, and scientists. Fortunately\, Green-Wood’s extensive records do not indicate any such thievery on our grounds\, but other burial sites were not so lucky!  \n\n\n\nWe’ve covered body snatching for medical schools and the pseudoscience of phrenology and the skull snatching frenzy that followed. This time around\, we’re digging even deeper—delving into body snatching for ransom\, fandom\, and politics. \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 popular series\, History Happy Hour. \n\n\n\n\n\n$9 / $4 for members. A Zoom link and recipe will be emailed the day before the program. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGet Tickets\n\n\n\n\n\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:Show & Tale: Artists\, Inspiration\, and Tools
DESCRIPTION:Show & Tale is back! It’s like Antiques Roadshow but with storytelling\, or a Death Cafe turned Pinterest board. Everyone is welcome to join in—just bring an object of your choosing and share your story about loss. No judges\, no prizes\, no pressure. And no need to practice!  \n\n\n\nAt this special Show & Tale\, we’re focusing on the items\, people\, and stories that have inspired our creativity. Whether from a century ago or just yesterday\, objects given to us by those we have lost can encourage our artistic expression. Did your loved one pass down a tool of their trade\, a book of drawings\, or artwork that hung on their wall? Is there a card or letter you take out to read when you’re feeling down? Or does a present-day object remind you of someone who has inspired you? Bring a piece of your personal history and share how it’s influenced your story. \n\n\n\nSome ideas to inspire you: Photographs\, letters\, cameras\, jewelry\, paintbrushes\, woodworking tools\, aprons\, books\, paintings or prints … any objects that connect you to art!  \n\n\n\n*Just want to come and listen? Awesome. Observers are always welcome. \n\n\n\n\n\nFree. Registration required. A Zoom link will be in your confirmation email upon registration. Please consider a suggested donation of $10 to The Green-Wood Historic Fund so that we can continue to offer free and low-cost programs throughout the year. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGet Tickets

DESCRIPTION:The Death Café is inspired by the centuries-old European salon (or café)\, an informal gathering to discuss philosophical\, political or scientific ideas. 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. All events will take place rain or shine. Click here for our inclement weather policy. \n \nMobile users: Please tap here for free registration.\n

SUMMARY:Mortality & Me: Green-Wood’s Book Club
DESCRIPTION:It can be difficult to engage in conversations about death: Will I say the wrong thing? Am I going to offend someone? Who wants to discuss that morbid stuff anyway? Green-Wood’s book club\, Mortality & Me\, will help make death\, dying\, and end-of-life matters an easier subject to talk about through compelling books that tackle these topics head on.  \n\n\n\nFor this book club session\, we’re joined by author Leila Taylor for a discussion on her 2019 book Darkly: Black History and America’s Gothic Soul. Described as“a fascinating journey into the dark heart of the American gothic\,” Darkly analyzes the relationship between the “gothic” and race in American culture. The evening will begin with a conversation between Taylor and our moderator\, Josie Wells\, before opening discussion up to the group. \n\n\n\nAnd don’t worry—you don’t need to read the book in its entirety (though we recommend you do!) Three designated sections\, which will provide the basis of our conversation\, will be emailed to you in advance.  \n\n\n\nMortality & Me’s moderator\, Josie Wells\, is the creator and facilitator of Footnotes & Indexes Book Club whose mission is to connect people to literature that feeds their curiosity and articulates their lived experiences as a form of community activism. She holds degrees in African American Studies and English from Rutgers University and is an award-winning journalist. \n\n\n\n\n\nFree. Registration required. A Zoom link will be in your confirmation email upon registration. Please consider a suggested donation of $10 to The Green-Wood Historic Fund so that we can continue to offer free and low-cost programs throughout the year. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGet Tickets

SUMMARY:Preparing for Preservation: The Phelps Mausoleum
DESCRIPTION:In New York City\, scaffolding around historic buildings is not uncommon—but what about in a cemetery? It should come as no shock\, but Green-Wood’s historic mausoleums also need lots of TLC! Since 2018\,  Neela Wickremesinghe\, Green-Wood’s Robert A. and Elizabeth Rohn Jeffe Director of Restoration and Preservation\, has been supervising the Bridge to Crafts Careers program\, which trains young people in the trade of masonry restoration\, using one of the Cemetery’s elaborate mausoleums as its classroom. This spring\, a new cohort of trainees will tackle the historic Phelps mausoleum\, built circa 1860. \n\n\n\n\n\nPrice: $9\, and $4 for members \n\n\n\n\n\n\nGet Tickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVirtual EventA Zoom link will be in your confirmation email upon registration.\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin Neela and Green-Wood Historian Jeff Richman for a virtual discussion of the upcoming project—what the goals are\, and what challenges they might encounter.  \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\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.
