But mortality isn’t just a human experience; it’s woven into the fabric of the universe itself\, where stars are born and die\, and galaxies collide and dissolve. What happens on Earth happens in the cosmos\, too. \n\n\n\nMortal Matters is an invitation to sit with that truth. Through talks\, workshops\, and guided tours\, we’re weaving together three ways of understanding life’s end: the practice\, the science\, and the story. End-of-life and funeral professionals share what they know from the front lines of loss. Astrophysicists\, cultural anthropologists\, and forensic experts bring the evidence\, from black holes to mourning rituals to the anatomy of corpses. Artists and authors share their creative energies\, giving form to how we imagine and talk about endings. \n\n\n\nMortal Matters offers a rare chance to engage mortality on Earth and beyond it. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGet Tickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFRIDAY SCHEDULE\n\n\n\nRest in Pace: Twilight Edition\n\n\n\nTime(s): 06:30–07:30pmLocation: Meet at the Gothic Arch \n\n\n\nA good walk is made great with good company. \n\n\n\nOn this leisurely walking tour\, we’ll take in the views\, get to know one another\, and uncover stories of scientists and inventors laid to rest at Green-Wood. It’s less about the exercise and more about the company. Your guide is Mary Pat Klein\, a Green-Wood program lead who knows every twist and turn of these 478 acres\, and has the stories to prove it! \n\n\n\nWhat the Body Remembers\n\n\n\nTime(s): 06:30–07:30pmLocation: The Green-House Atrium \n\n\n\nThe body as memory\, evidence\, and archive. \n\n\n\nArtist Janine Anton\,forensic anthropologist Angelique Corthals and Joanna Ebenstein\, founder and creative director of Morbid Anatomy\, for a conversation about what loss leaves behind in the body. For decades\, Antoni has used the body as both material and a vessel for memory\, exploring how experience can be carried\, transformed\, and made visible. Corthals approaches the body from another perspective: as evidence\, reading the physical traces a life can leave long after death. Ebenstein\, author of Memento Mori: The Art of Contemplating Death to Live a Better Life\, brings her own longstanding inquiry into death\, remembrance\, and our relationship to mortality. Together\, they’ll consider what the body holds onto\, what it lets go\, and how memory and loss can continue to take shape within us. \n\n\n\nWhat Survives\n\n\n\nTime(s): 08:00–09:00pmLocation: The Green-House Atrium \n\n\n\nWhat gets carried forward changes along the way. \n\n\n\nArtists Laura Anderson Barbata\, Cinthya Santos Briones\, and Mary Ting come together to consider how knowledge is carried through ritual\, storytelling\, and embodied experience. Drawing from their own creative practices\, oral histories\, and work rooted in collective care\, they’ll explore how memory survives across migration\, displacement\, and cultural transformation\, and how traditions are preserved\, adapted\, and reshaped along the way. \n\n\n\nGrief Karaoke\n\n\n\nTime(s): 06:00–09:00pmLocation: Historic Chapel \n\n\n\nGrief doesn’t need to be silent to be sacred. \n\n\n\nArtist Leigh Davis leads an evening of Grief Karaoke\, inviting all to gather in the Cemetery to sing\, listen\, dance\, or make a raucous mess together. Karaoke gives voice to feelings that don’t always have somewhere to go. Here\, grief can be loud\, tender\, funny\, messy\, and shared. Choose a song\, join in from the audience\, or simply be there as we make space for whatever comes up. Sign-ups will take place in front of the Historic Chapel\, first come\, first served. All are invited to look and listen. \n\n\n\nSATURDAY SCHEDULE\n\n\n\nPotential Ends of the Universe\n\n\n\nTime(s): 11:30am–12:30pmLocation: The Green-House Atrium \n\n\n\nThe biggest thing to grieve is something none of us will live to see die. \n\n\n\nAstrophysicist and folklorist Dr. Moiya McTier takes us to the farthest reaches of the future to consider how the universe might end. From the Big Crunch to the Big Rip\, she’ll unpack the physics behind leading theories of the cosmos’s ultimate fate and the enormous timescales they ask us to imagine. Along the way\, she’ll consider the stories we tell about cosmic endings and what our fascination with them reveals about how we understand our place in the universe. \n\n\n\nMemory and Matter: A Reading and Conversation with Edwidge Danticat\n\n\n\nTime(s): 01:00–02:00pmLocation: The Green-House Atrium \n\n\n\nSome stories are too heavy to carry alone. \n\n\n\nAcclaimed author Edwidge Danticat reads from her newest novel\, Dèy\, whose title takes its name from the Creole word for mourning. Moving between Haiti\, Miami\, and Brooklyn\, the novel follows a woman whose sense of self and family are upended by a sudden act of violence. She will be joined by LaToya Anderson\, a physicist who studies how atoms and molecules interact at the smallest scales\, work that asks how matter holds together\, breaks apart\, and reforms under pressure. Together they’ll move between the language of grief and the language of matter\, drawing an unexpected parallel between how a body of work is built from fragments and how the physical world does the same. \n\n\n\nOur Brain on Dying\n\n\n\nTime(s): 02:30–03:30pmLocation: The Green-House Atrium \n\n\n\nWhat happens to the brain when we grieve? \n\n\n\nAstrophysicist and folklorist Dr. Moiya McTier brings together brain experts to explore the biology of grief and dying\, and what happens in the brain and body as we encounter loss.How does grief affect the way we think\, behave\, and move through everyday life? How do our brains adapt to the absence of someone we love? And what happens biologically as the body approaches the end of life? Drawing on current research\, the conversation will offer a closer look at the physical processes behind bereavement and dying\, and how our bodies respond to experiences we often think of as purely emotional. \n\n\n\nDancing With Death: The Science behind Movement\n\n\n\nTime(s): 04:00–05:00pmLocation: The Green-House Atrium \n\n\n\nSome truths are easier to move through than to say out loud. \n\n\n\nScientist and dancer LaToya Anderson and interdisciplinary artist Eiko Otake sit down for a fireside conversation on the intersections of art and science through the shared language of dance. Drawing on their distinct careers\, Anderson and Otake reflect on how movement informs observation\, creativity\, and discovery\, tracing where scientific inquiry and artistic practice overlap. \n\n\n\nGrieving & Weaving\n\n\n\nTime(s): 04:00–07:00pmLocation: The Green-House Atrium \n\n\n\nStitching together creativity and community. \n\n\n\nWhether you’ve been knitting for years or are picking up a hook or pair of needles for the first time\, you’re invited to join us for an evening of crafting\, conversation\, and shared resources around grief. Beginners can learn the basics of knitting and crochet in small tutorial groups\, while experienced crafters are welcome to bring a project of their own and lend a hand to others. Feel free to bring your own yarn\, needles\, hooks\, or other materials. A limited selection of supplies will also be available on a first-come\, first-served basis. Not a knitter? Not to worry\, you can bring whatever other crafts you are working on. From 5–6pm\, bestselling author Bruce Feiler will join us for a special reading from his new book\, A Time to Gather\, which includes stories from Green-Wood’s own Grieving & Weaving program. The reading will be followed by a light reception from 6–7pm. \n\n\n\nEchoes & Epitaphs\n\n\n\nTime(s): 01:00–05:00pmLocation: The Green-House Classroom \n\n\n\nHow do we remember ourselves? \n\n\n\nGreen-Wood’s Artist in Residence\, Jia Sung\, has spent years blending the stories of her ancestors\, lost loved ones\, and past versions of herself into her creative practice. Through her art\, she explores what it means to inherit a legacy and\, one day\, create one of your own for future generations. Now\, she invites you to take part in that practice. Choose a stamp\, press it onto the page\, and let the image inspire a poem\, reflection\, or small work of art. Let the Cemetery’s symbols guide your imagination as you consider your own memories and legacy. \n\n\n\nSUNDAY SCHEDULE\n\n\n\nThe History of Science in Deathcare\n\n\n\nTime(s): 10:15–11:15am and 11:30–12:30pmLocation: Meet at the Gothic Arch \n\n\n\nDeathcare has a history. \n\n\n\nJoin us aboard the Green-Wood Trolley to trace the science and evolution of American deathcare. We’ll visit the grave of Auguste Renouard\, often called the father of modern embalming\, then stop at the Civil War Soldiers’ Lot\, where we’ll discuss how the demands of war accelerated advances in and the need for embalming. From there\, we’ll discover the legacy of surgeon Dr. Valentine Mott\, whose innovations shaped nineteenth-century medicine before journeying through historic Cedar Dell\, where the landscape itself reflects changing ideas about burial and remembrance. \n\n\n\nThe Past\, Present\, and Future of the Grave\n\n\n\nTime(s): 03:00–04:00pmLocation: Meet at the Gothic Arch \n\n\n\nDeathcare has always changed to meet the needs of the living. \n\n\n\nThe way we can lay a loved one to rest is limitless\, from embalming and cremation to Green Burials. Led by longtime Green-Wood tour guide and Grave (2023) author Allison C. Meier\, this walk explores the past\, present\, and future of interment and memorization\, including emerging practices like Natural Organic Reduction and illuminated biomass. \n\n\n\nWhat the Corpse Can Tell Us\n\n\n\nTime(s): 11:30am–12:30pmLocation: The Green-House Atrium \n\n\n\nDeath isn’t just an end; it’s a remarkable biological process. \n\n\n\nForensic entomologist Dr. Jennifer Rosati and fellow researchers explore the science of human decomposition\, from the first changes in the body to its eventual return to the soil. They’ll trace the stages of decomposition and the succession of insects that arrive along the way\, revealing how these tiny organisms can help forensic investigators determine what happened after a person died. The conversation will also look beyond the crime lab to consider decomposition as part of a larger ecological process\, connecting the human body back to the earth and the cycles that sustain life. \n\n\n\nAll Ends Are Beginnings\n\n\n\nTime(s): 01:00–02:00pmLocation: The Green-House Atrium \n\n\n\nWhat dies becomes what’s next. \n\n\n\nWhat happens after something dies? Three speakers working across astrophysics\, human composting\, and art approach that question from very different directions. Astrophysicist Shyam Menon of the Flatiron Institute looks to the life and death of stars\, whose collapse creates the elements that become the building blocks of planets\, ecosystems\, and our own bodies. Pablo Metz\, co-founder of Meine Erde\, brings the conversation back to Earth through his work with human composting\, a process that transforms the body into soil. Artist Jean Shin works with another kind of remains: the objects people discard. Through her practice\, abandoned materials take on new forms and new meaning. Together\, they’ll consider death not only as disappearance\, but as transformation: the point at which matter moves from one form into another. \n\n\n\nTerramation at Green-Wood & Beyond\n\n\n\nTime(s): 02:30–03:30pmLocation: The Green-House Atrium \n\n\n\nEven in death\, the body can still give something back. \n\n\n\nPablo Metz of Meine Erde\, Green-Wood’s Vice President of Landscape Joe Charap\, and cemetery consultant Stephanie Sloane come together to explore the biology\, ecology\, and environmental impact of Natural Organic Reduction. They will provide a live demonstration of a Terramation pod and talk through the science behind how the body transforms into nutrient-rich earth through accelerated natural decomposition. Prepare all your questions about the process\, its practical applications\, and the future of sustainable deathcare. \n\n\n\nBiology on Tap\n\n\n\nTime(s): 04:00–05:00pmLocation: The Green-House Atrium \n\n\n\nYour body has plans for the afterlife\, whether you’ve made any or not. \n\n\n\nJoin scientists and anthropologists from Biology on Tap for an evening exploring how different cultures honor the dead\, and what actually happens to a body once it returns to the earth\, the sea\, or wherever it ends up. Stick around for trivia\, prizes included\, if you were paying attention! \n\n\n\nDeath by Design: Science\, Restoration\, and Ritual\n\n\n\nTime(s): 02:30–03:30pmLocation: Modern Chapel \n\n\n\nEvery farewell is part science\, part craft\, part ritual. \n\n\n\nThis panel pulls back the curtain on what actually happens between death and burial. Frigid Fluid traces the history and science of embalming fluid with a live demonstration\, showing the chemistry that makes preservation possible. Then\, funeral celebrant Jennifer Muldowney of Muldowney Memorials (better known to many as the Glam Reaper) and Connecticut-based funeral director and post-mortem restorative specialist Amanda King discuss the skill and care that go into returning a familiar face to someone’s loved ones. All three offer a rare\, candid look at the people behind this often-hidden profession\, and what it takes to do the work with precision\, artistry\, and respect. \n\n\n\nAcross Cultures: Our Shared History of Goodbye\n\n\n\nTime(s): 04:00–05:00pmLocation: Modern Chapel \n\n\n\nEvery culture buries its dead differently\, and every culture is trying to say the same thing. \n\n\n\nThis panel brings together representatives from some of New York’s largest international communities for a conversation on the traditions\, rituals\, and beliefs that shape how we say goodbye. From funeral customs and community gatherings to food\, music\, memorial objects\, and annual celebrations of the dead\, this panel looks at how cultural practices help families carry grief while holding onto identity across generations.

Trapped between this life and the next in a realm called the bardo\, a chorus of restless spirits watches as Lincoln confronts an impossible grief while carrying the weight of a nation at war.
