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 of Victorian Tragedies
DESCRIPTION:This 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. \nThe Victorians knew a thing or two about tragedy. They seemed to almost revel in tales of disaster and heartbreak. And a Victorian-era cemetery\, like Green-Wood\, has no dearth of these sad\, sad stories. Greg Young\, co-host of the award-winning NYC history podcast\, The Bowery Boys\, emcees a night of storytelling\, where you and your fellow audience members will vote on the most tragic of Victorian tales.  \nHe will be joined by a team of seasoned storytellers who will try to convince you that their own heartbreaking tale of a Green-Wood permanent resident is worthy of the title. Will it be the victims of a shipwreck just 300 yards from port or the beautiful Charlotte Canda thrown from her horse-drawn carriage on the night of her 17th birthday? A bit Victorian-era trivia is also on deck\, along with some great Green-Wood prizes for the most knowledgeable (or lucky). Be sure to bring tissues. Fainting couches not provided.  \n$20 for members of Green-Wood and BHS / $25 for nonmembers \nAll events will take place rain or shine. Click here for our inclement weather policy.

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

Join today. \nBecome an Expert in the Fascinating Arts\, Crafts\, and Culture of Victorian Mourning \n \nNo one knew how to grieve like the Victorians. The elaborate and often downright weird rituals of the era – inspired by Queen Victoria who publicly mourned her husband’s death for forty years – provide a fascinating look at a culture for whom death was ever present.  In the United States\, losses from the Civil War eclipsed 600\,000 deaths\, or two percent of the entire population. Death was everywhere. Mourning was an art form. Widows dressed in black from head to toe for an entire year. Household mirrors were covered and clocks were stopped when a death occurred. Women created and wore intricate jewelry made from the hair of the deceased.  And rural cemeteries were established across America. Green-Wood is one such example\, which by the 1860’s drew over 500\,000 visitors a year who came to see the cemetery’s collection of ornate monuments and mausoleums.  \nJoin us for an afternoon symposium devoted to exploring the arts and culture of Victorian mourning with illustrated talks and show-and-tell presentations of period artifacts. Speakers will include Dr. Stanley Burns\, M.D.\, founder of the Burns Archive of photographic history and professor of medicine and psychiatry at NYU Langone Medical Center\, Green-Wood Historian Jeff Richman\, Evan Michelson\, co-owner of Obscura Antiques & Oddities and host of the Science Channel’s Oddities\, funeral director Amy Cunningham\, Jessica Glasscock\, Research Associate for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s “Death Becomes Her” Exhibition\, and more! \nThis symposium is organized in partnership with Joanna Ebenstein\, co-founder of the former Museum of Morbid Anatomy and Laetitia Barbier\, former librarian of the Museum.  \n \nSCHEDULE \n12:00-12:30: Introductions by Harry Weil\, Manager of Programs at Green-Wood Cemetery and Joanna Ebenstein and Laetitia Barbier of the recently shuttered Morbid Anatomy Museum \n12:30-1:10: An Illustrated History of Green-Wood Cemetery with Jeff Richman\, Historian of Green-Wood Cemetery \n1:10-2:00: Victorian Hair Jewelry and Artifact Art Show and Tell with Evan Michelson of Obscura Antiques and TV’s Oddities and master jeweler and hair artist Karen Bachmann \nLunch Break \n3:00-3:30: Mourning at the Museum:  An overview of the recent exhibition Death Becomes Her\, focusing on the evolution of mourning attire from 1815 to 1915\, with Jessica Glasscock\, Research Associate at The Costume Institute at The Metropolitan Museum of Art \n3:30-4:30: Dr. Stanley B. Burns\, Founder of The Burns Archive and author of “Sleeping Beauty\,” in conversation with Joanna Ebenstein\, founder of Morbid Anatomy \n4:30-5:00: Dramatic readings of 19th century condolence letters overseen by Funeral Director Amy Cunningham \n5:00-7:00 Thematic music and refreshments provided by Friese Undine \n \n$20 for members of Green-Wood and BHS / $25 for nonmembers \nClick here for our inclement weather policy.

SUMMARY:Pouring Green-Wood
DESCRIPTION: \nWhen Joy Doumis and Jeremy Hammond approached Green-Wood in fall 2015 to ask if they could harvest the apples here\, of course we had to know why. To make hard cider of course! Spread across 478 acres\, our urban orchard has over 150 Malus (aka apple) trees! Using giant tarps to gather apples varieties that include Baldwin\, Granny Smith\, various crab apples\, and a yet-to-be-identified apple variety\, they set about turning their harvest into a delicious fermentation of homemade hard cider. In keeping with the sustainable farming movement and a love for all things Green-Wood\, join Joy and Jeremy for the story of how they produced over 100 bottles of hard cider (which they call Proper Cider) in their own back yard literally. Naturally\, a tasting of the final product is included. \n \n$25 for members of Green-Wood and BHS / $30 for nonmembers. \n \nThis program takes place in our Modern Chapel just to the right after passing through the Gothic Arches at the main entrance.

DESCRIPTION:Credit: Rob Jett\nBefore 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. Copies of our new Bird Checklist will be available to all tour participants. Comfortable footwear is recommended. \nBirds of Late-Winter & Early Migrants\nSunday\, March 12 & 26 at 7:00 AM\nWith the beginning of longer days\, we’ll track many of the nearly 40 overwintering bird species at Green-Wood. Be on the lookout for arriving Common Grackles\, nest building Red-tailed Hawks\, visiting American Woodcocks\, several species of waterfowl\, and the first appearances of Eastern Phoebes (a harbinger of the spring songbird migration). \nBirds of Early-Spring Migration\nSunday\, April 9\, 16\, 23\, & 30 at 6:30 AM\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 north as well as arriving herons & egrets at Green-Wood’s glacial ponds. \nPeak Spring Migration Birding\nSunday\, May 7\, 14\, 21\, & 28 and Saturday\, May 6 & 20 at 6:00 AM\nFrom Ruby-throated Hummingbirds to over 20 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 active time of day for birds. \n$10 for members of Green‑Wood and BHS/$15 for non-members. \nFor this program you will check in at the Gothic Arches\, right at the main entrance.
