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.

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.

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:Grief in our Hands: Interacting with Loss through Art
DESCRIPTION:Credit: Brianna L. Hernández\n\n\n\n\n\nIn this interactive workshop\, artist and death doula Brianna L. Hernández will share about the role of grief in her creative practice and guide participants to create a work of their own. The evening begins with Brianna discussing ways that art can be an engaging tool for understanding and coming to terms with the inevitable. After\, participants will reflect on their own experience with loss by creating memorial artworks through guided prompts\, and support from Hernández. \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\nWhether honoring a loved one or contemplating one’s own life\, this workshop will provide space to express grief unique to each participant. \n\n\n\nAttendees are encouraged to bring a personal memento related to their grief (images on a phone work just fine!) and to wear comfortable clothing that is okay to get a little messy. Not artistically inclined or you just don’t consider yourself creative? Don’t worry! This workshop is about the process\, not the final product. Supplies (paint and canvas) will be provided\, but you are encouraged to bring your own sketchbooks\, clay\, etc. \n\n\n\nBrianna L. Hernández is a Chicana artist\, curator\, educator\, and death doula guided by socially engaged practices. In developing as an artist Hernández credits her late mother\, Sylvia D. Hernández\, as her most significant mentor. In the studio\, Hernández focuses on end-of-life care\, grieving processes\, and mourning rituals based on lived experience\, cultural research\, and collaborations with peers. As a curator\, she works with artists to make socially-charged topics publicly accessible in order to create opportunities for education and empathy. Hernández proudly serves as Director of Curation and Board Secretary of Ma’s House & BIPOC Art Studio on the Shinnecock Indian Reservation\, and as Assistant Curator at the Parrish Art Museum. \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.

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.
