Nightfall: Danse Macabre
2023-10-21 19:00 - 22:00 (America/New_York)
NEW DATE: This evening of Nightfall has been postponed from Friday, October 20th, to the rain date of Saturday, October 21st. All tickets for Friday will be honored on Saturday. There are no refunds or exchanges.

The undeniable truth is, we are all going to die. So why not embrace the inevitable and go dancing to our graves? This year’s Nightfall—the crowning event of Green-Wood’s fall season—is inspired by the danse macabre or dance of death. Dating to the Middle Ages, it describes skeletons enticing kings, cardinals, and common folk to their graves with musical accompaniment (or for the more reluctant, by hook or by crook). It’s a poignant reminder that the same fate awaits us all. Till then, shake off any fears or anxieties and join us in a celebration of time we have left together.

Price: $75, $70 for members, $100 for VIPs

Día de los Muertos OfrendaCinthya Santos-Briones

Free, Open Daily 10am-5pmHistoric Chapel

En Espanol

Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) is a holiday celebrated in Mexico and parts of Latin America that honors the departed through music, dancing, gatherings with family and friends, and ofrendas (offerings made on home altars). Since 2018, Green-Wood has commissioned a Brooklyn-based artist to create and install a large-scale community altar in the Cemetery’s Historic Chapel. Visitors are encouraged to pay tribute to lost loved ones by lighting candles, and by leaving personal offerings, including flowers, photographs, food, and notes.

Santos-Briones’ installation, Mictlan, draws inspiration from both ancient and modern conceptions of death in Mexico. The title refers to the underworld of Aztec mythology where souls of the departed spend eternity. The centerpiece of the installation, the community altar, is designed as a pyramid, modeled after the monuments and temples constructed by indigenous populations. This architectural style, along with other practices and traditions, was lost in the sixteenth century, when Europeans colonized the region and forced conversion to Christianity.

Santos-Briones is a visual artist, educator, and cultural organizer with indigenous Nahua roots based in New York. Her photography has been published in The New York Times, Vogue, Buzzfeed, The Intercept, New Yorker, The Nation Magazine, among others. Mictlan will be her first large scale installation.

What does it all mean? This eye-opening walking tour will showcase these curious depictions and let you in on the meaning of these eternal, though often cryptic, symbols.
