SUMMARY:Death and Dharma
DESCRIPTION:What can we learn from Buddhist teachings about our own lives on earth? How might we understand the impermanence of life within the expanding universe? In what ways might death inform our relationships with strangers\, loved ones\, and our own selves? These questions are the inspiration for a new series of lectures and meditations presented by the Brooklyn Zen Center (BZC) and Green-Wood that explore the complexities of death\, dying\, and the hereafter. \nLed by teachers from the BZC\, each session will begin with an insightful discussion that highlights Buddhist teachings on life and death. Afterward\, just around sunset\, attendees will gather for meditation within the cemetery’s tranquil and historic landscape. Whether you’re a practicing Buddhist or just someone looking to gain a little peace of mind\, each session will offer thoughtful opportunities for reflection in the company of fellow seekers. \nIf you are unable to sit on the ground\, you are strongly encouraged to bring a folding chair or cushion. Every effort will be made to choose a meditation site that is accessible for those with mobility issues. \nTicket prices are on a sliding scale basis to allow participants to pay according to individual means. Please note: Tickets are not available on Green-Wood’s website. To purchase tickets and for more information on cost\, visit Brooklyn Zen Center’s website.

SUMMARY:Death and Dharma
DESCRIPTION:What can we learn from Buddhist teachings about our own lives on earth? How might we understand the impermanence of life within the expanding universe? In what ways might death inform our relationships with strangers\, loved ones\, and our own selves? These questions are the inspiration for a new series of lectures and meditations presented by the Brooklyn Zen Center (BZC) and Green-Wood that explore the complexities of death\, dying\, and the hereafter. \nLed by teachers from the BZC\, each session will begin with an insightful discussion that highlights Buddhist teachings on life and death. Afterward\, just around sunset\, attendees will gather for meditation within the cemetery’s tranquil and historic landscape. Whether you’re a practicing Buddhist or just someone looking to gain a little peace of mind\, each session will offer thoughtful opportunities for reflection in the company of fellow seekers. \nIf you are unable to sit on the ground\, you are strongly encouraged to bring a folding chair or cushion. Every effort will be made to choose a meditation site that is accessible for those with mobility issues. \nTicket prices are on a sliding scale basis to allow participants to pay according to individual means. Please note: Tickets are not available on Green-Wood’s website. To purchase tickets and for more information on cost\, visit Brooklyn Zen Center’s website.

SUMMARY:(Sold Out) A Night at Niblo’s Garden
DESCRIPTION:Credit: Maike Schulz\nThis event is sold out. Make sure you never miss out on tickets again! Green-Wood members get access to tickets weeks before the general public. Join today. \nThis popular event is back for 2017 and better than ever! Niblo’s Garden was once one of New York City’s largest and most elaborate theaters (at Prince and Broadway in SoHo) replete with sparkling lanterns\, fountains\, a festive open-air restaurant and bar\, and featuring the top musicians\, dancers\, and entertainers of the time. Owner and impresario\, William Niblo\, an eccentric himself\, was known to invite friends to the site of his elaborate mausoleum at Green-Wood\, built for his dearly departed wife\, turning the lakeside burial plot into a pleasure garden of its own. He was said to have visited the mausoleum on a daily basis\, bringing friends\, picnicking and even stocking the nearby pond with goldfish. \nEnjoy a Victorian extravaganza of performing arts put on by our good friends at Bindlestiff Family Cirkus\, a vaudeville and arts powerhouse since 1995. Your night will begin with a picnic (bring your own) around the beautiful pond Crescent Water and will unfold into an evening of showmanship in front of Niblo’s grand mausoleum. As always\, author and Niblo expert Ben Feldman will hold court as Niblo himself. Bring a blanket\, snacks\, and drinks\, and prepare to be dazzled by 19th-century games\, fire eaters\, contortionists\, and much more – all lit by candles and a starry sky. \n$35 for members of Green-Wood and BHS / $40 for non-members. \nClick here for our inclement weather policy. \n

SUMMARY:Death Café
DESCRIPTION: \n \nThe 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.\n \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 \n“A place for people to discuss our inevitable fate.” – Gothamist\n \n“It’s a reversal for American culture\, which for a long time has shied away from these conversations.” – Village Voice \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:Death and Dharma
DESCRIPTION:What can we learn from Buddhist teachings about our own lives on earth? How might we understand the impermanence of life within the expanding universe? In what ways might death inform our relationships with strangers\, loved ones\, and our own selves? These questions are the inspiration for a new series of lectures and meditations presented by the Brooklyn Zen Center (BZC) and Green-Wood that explore the complexities of death\, dying\, and the hereafter. \nLed by teachers from the BZC\, each session will begin with an insightful discussion that highlights Buddhist teachings on life and death. Afterward\, just around sunset\, attendees will gather for meditation within the cemetery’s tranquil and historic landscape. Whether you’re a practicing Buddhist or just someone looking to gain a little peace of mind\, each session will offer thoughtful opportunities for reflection in the company of fellow seekers. \nIf you are unable to sit on the ground\, you are strongly encouraged to bring a folding chair or cushion. Every effort will be made to choose a meditation site that is accessible for those with mobility issues. \nTicket prices are on a sliding scale basis to allow participants to pay according to individual means. Please note: Tickets are not available on Green-Wood’s website. To purchase tickets and for more information on cost\, visit Brooklyn Zen Center’s website.
