SUMMARY:The Lost Art of Dying
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians & Surgeons and The Green-Wood Cemetery \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat can medieval manuscripts teach us today about living and dying well? Join Columbia Univ. physician L.S. Dugdale as she explores these texts and speaks from her new book The Lost Art of Dying. \n\n\n\nFor more than 500 years\, the ‘ars moriendi’ or ‘art of dying’ genre of literature dominated living and dying in the West. These handbooks on the preparation for death spanned languages\, religions\, cultural contexts\, and continents. In her new book\, The Lost Art of Dying\, Dugdale asks what it might look like to revive this forgotten wisdom. How might we learn from the past in order to move toward a future in which we live well in order to die well? \n\n\n\nDr. L.S. Dugdale is a primary care physician and professor at Columbia University\, where she is Director of the Center for Clinical Medical Ethics. She has published widely in both the popular and academic press. Her first book\, Dying in the Twenty-First Century\, provides the scholarly foundation for her most recent book\, The Lost Art of Dying: Reviving Forgotten Wisdom.  \n\n\n\n\n\nDiscussion will be facilitated by Amy Cunningham\, Funeral Director and Death Educator at Green-Wood. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nRSVP (Free)

SUMMARY:On African American Death Practices Part II
DESCRIPTION:Death is the great equalizer\, right? Why then have funerary and burial practices been racially segregated in the United States for centuries? Why does death care continue to be one of the most segregated sectors of the American economy? This discussion uses these questions as a starting point to trace the evolution of African American funeral practices through key moments in history and continuing shifts. We will also discuss the current state of affairs and what it might suggest about the changing landscape of America’s death culture more broadly. In Part II we will focus our discussion on contemporary African American death practices. \n\n\n\nThe discussion will be led by University of Chicago doctoral candidate\, LaShaya Howie\, whose studies focus on contemporary death practices in the US; cultural histories of African American funerals and memorials; theories of Blackness and death; and materiality\, mourning\, and grief. \n\n\n\nThis program is presented as part of a new Death Education series at Green-Wood\, Death & Us. Death is the great universal\, but the ways in which the dead are grieved and memorialized vary across racial\, cultural\, and economic divides in the United States. This series brings together a myriad of voices—from historians and preservationists to activists and funeral practitioners—to explore how diverse communities mourn and commemorate the departed from our nation’s founding to today. \n\n\n\n\n\nFree. A Zoom link will be in your confirmation email upon registration. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGet Tickets\nGet Tickets on Eventbrite

SUMMARY:Birding in Peace
DESCRIPTION:Before our gates open to the general public\, birding expert Rob Jett leads these peaceful Sunday morning walking tours to discover the many birds that call Green-Wood home. \n\n\n\nJust because it’s winter\, doesn’t mean that there aren’t interesting birds to discover in Green-Wood. For some bird species that migrate south after the breeding season\, Brooklyn is their Miami during the cold months. Spend the early morning exploring the cemetery\, looking for overwintering waterfowl\, nuthatches\, woodpeckers\, sparrows\, finches and any half-hardy birds that decided to stick around. By February we’ll see some of the early north-bound birds beginning to trickle back into the area. \n\n\n\nAll walks are at a slow pace on easy to moderate terrain\, but proper\, close toed footwear is suggested. Green-Wood’s official birding checklist is available to pick up from the security guard at the Main Entrance on 25th Street or as a printable PDF here. \n\n\n\n\n\nTickets are $20/$15 for members. There are no paper or e-tickets. Attendees will be checked in by name. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGet Tickets\nGet Tickets on Eventbrite\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\nCourtesy of Jennifer Kepler.\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:Pages from the Past: NYC's Greatest Diarist Dishes
DESCRIPTION:Everyone loves a little gossip\, right? And no one could dish it like George Templeton Strong. Once a well-connected lawyer and a trustee of both Trinity Church and Columbia College (but also a man who reflected the racial\, ethnic\, and religious prejudices of his time)\, he is now perhaps best known for the extensive private diary (never actually intended for publication) that he kept from 1835 until his death in 1875. Strong’s writings detail his frank observations of high society and the people of NYC who he knew intimately (many of whom wound up at Green-Wood)\, as well as his visits to the Cemetery. Matt Dellinger\, writer and student of history\, will join Green-Wood Historian Jeff Richman to discuss Strong’s candid observations and his unique insider’s view of history. \n\n\n\nMatt Dellinger has written for The New Yorker\, the Oxford American\, The New York Times\, and The Atlantic\, and has reported on transportation and planning for WNYC. He is the author of Interstate 69: The Unfinished History of the Last Great American Highway and is at work on his second book\, about Brooklyn in the Civil War. \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\n\n\n$9 / $4 for members. A Zoom link and recipe 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\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.

Join our email list for the latest event and other news from Green-Wood. \n\n\n\nThis special edition of the popular Death Cafe is inspired by artist Heidi Lau. She will begin the evening discussing her art practice and the importance of hot pots in Chinese culture as an opportunity for nourishment\, conversation\, and reflection. Led by Death Cafe moderator\, Bethany Tabor\, participants will be encouraged to make their own hot pots (Don’t worry! Lau will send some how-to tips)\, while taking part in intimate group conversations about their thoughts and feelings on death. As always\, the Death Cafe is an opportunity for safe and open exchanges\, without an agenda. \n\n\n\nThis program is presented as part of a new Death Education series at Green-Wood\, Death & Us.

SUMMARY:Traces of Tiffany: Gravestones Designed by Tiffany Studios
DESCRIPTION:Louis Comfort Tiffany was one of the most prolific and talented designers of the Gilded Age. You’ve probably heard his name associated with Tiffany lamps or Tiffany stained glass\, but few people know that this remarkable and multi-talented artist was also in the gravestone business. In fact\, his studio designed hundreds of cemetery monuments—sixty of which have been identified at Green-Wood alone. Join Lindsy Parrott\, the director and curator of The Neustadt Collection of Tiffany Glass\, and Green-Wood Historian Jeff Richman\, for a virtual tour of the richest and most interesting gravestones designed by Tiffany—including his own monument at Green-Wood. \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\n\n\n$9 / $4 for members.

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.

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.

SUMMARY:Amusing the Masses on Coney Island and Beyond: The Story of William F. Mangels
DESCRIPTION:In its heyday\, Coney Island’s amusement parks drew massive crowds excited to take a spin on flashy modern rides. This is due in no small part to the genius of William F. Mangels\, whose business designed and manufactured some of the most iconic rides of the era\, including “The Whip\,” carousels with galloping horses\, and “The Tickler\,” as well as elaborate shooting galleries\, that entertained generations around the world. Green-Wood’s historian Jeff Richman is joined by Lisa Mangels Schaefer\, Mangels’ granddaughter\, who will illuminate the extraordinary legacy of the remarkable and innovative family business. \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\n\n\n$9 / $4 for members.

SUMMARY:A Disposition to be Rich: Ferdinand Ward\, the Greatest Swindler of the Gilded Age
DESCRIPTION:Ferdinand Ward was the greatest swindler of the Gilded Age\, whose villainy bankrupted Ulysses S. Grant and stunned the world of finance. His fascinating story has been extensively researched by his great-grandson\, award-winning historian Geoffrey C. Ward\, author of A Disposition to be Rich. Drawing upon thousands of never before seen family documents\, Geoffrey traces Ferdinand’s rapid rise and dizzying fall in a narrative populated with mistresses\, crooked bankers\, corrupt New York officials\, and a desperate kidnapping scheme. A Disposition to be Rich was named a New York Times Notable Book when it was published in 2013.  \n\n\n\nGeoffrey C.
