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. 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:Wreath Making Workshop
DESCRIPTION: \n \nThere’s no time like the holidays to impress your friends and family. A beautiful home-made wreath will win you enough kudos to last you the whole year. Join Brooklyn-based expert florist Mindy Cardozo for an evening workshop to learn how to make your own wreath. Whether you’re super crafty or super klutzy\, Mindy will guide you through the process using a variety of wintry plants and materials. \n \nWhy are we making wreaths at Green-Wood? Wreaths are some of the most common motifs on monuments and mausoleums at Green-Wood. Also\, since the Victorian era\, it’s been a holiday tradition to adorn the gravesite of loved ones with evergreen wreaths. But regardless of where you’ll use your own wreath\, we celebrate the holiday spirit of coming together to design and create them. \n \nAll supplies are included\, as well as warm refreshments and seasonal treats. This event will take place in the Historic Chapel. \n \n$50 for members of Green‑Wood and BHS / $55 for non-members. \n \nClick here for our inclement weather policy. \n \n \n \n \nMobile users: Please tap here to buy tickets.\n \n\nNot a Member?\nClick here for all of our membership levels and information. \nAlready a Member?\nClick the “Enter promotional code here (members\, use your ID#)” link in the bottom right corner of the ticket box and enter your ID number to apply your ticket discount.

SUMMARY:Historic Landscapes as Venues for Sustainable Design with Larry Weaner
DESCRIPTION: \nFor just under thirty years\, renowned landscape designer Larry Weaner has urged America to rethink its love affair with the manicured lawn. Since establishing his firm in 1982\, Weaner has pushed for “planned\, natural landscapes” that eliminate the need for frequent mowing and other unsustainable practices\, advocating native plants that have an ecological relationship to the indigenous landscape. Weaner is now one of the most sought-after and forward-thinking landscape designers in the world. At Green-Wood\, he has just completed the first phase of redesigning the tiered slopes (dotted with nineteenth-century mausoleums) alongside the Historic Chapel. Through his thoughtful plant selection\, he has introduced flora that might have grown here in the cemetery’s earliest days (1830s)\, creating a habitat for pollinators and wildlife. In this program\, Weaner will discuss how historic landscapes can become pioneers in the field of sustainable design. \nTickets: $20\, $15 for members of Green-Wood or The Brooklyn Historical Society \nGreen-Wood’s Historic Chapel: enter cemetery through main gates at 25th Street and Fifth Avenue \nClick here for our inclement weather policy. This program is made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew M. Cuomo and the New York State Legislature. \nMobile users: Please tap here to buy tickets.\n \n\nNot a Member?\nClick here for all of our membership levels and information. \nAlready a Member?\nClick the “Enter promotional code here (members\, use your ID#)” link in the bottom right corner of the ticket box and enter your ID number to apply your ticket discount.
