Photo Credit: Charles Benton\n\n\n\nMay 7 – July 10\, 2022Saturdays and Sundays11:00am-5:00pm\n\n\n\nThis installation has been extended through July 10th due to popular demand! \n\n\n\nHeidi Lau became Green-Wood’s first-ever artist in residence in 2021 and her installation in the Catacombs is a culmination of a year-long exploration of the Cemetery. Her highly textured work in clay\, draws on themes of genealogy\, ritual\, and the posthuman\, with sources that include Taoist mythology\, burial customs\, and the built-environment of Macau (where she spent her formative years). Gardens as Cosmic Terrains is influenced by Lau’s research into the cosmological setting within Chinese gardens\, where the arrangement of arches\, pathways\, and vistas acts as a metaphor for time\, space\, and matter—as well as a portal to access both memories and the spirit world.  \n\n\n\nThe Catacombs are an approximately 15-20 minute walk from the Main Entrance. For directions\, pick up a map at the Main Entrance\, or access the map PDF here. \n\n\n\nFree and open to the public\, no reservations are necessary. \n\n\n\nPlease consider a donation to The Green-Wood Historic Fund so that we can continue to offer free and low-cost programs throughout the year.

Green-Wood’s official birding checklist will be made available to all attendees\, or you can print it in advance here. \n\n\n\nAnd depending when you stop by\, you may see a variety of different species passing through: \n\n\n\n\n\nPrice: $20\, and $15 for members \n\n\n\n\n\n\nGet Tickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWalking Tour(see details below)\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nEarly Spring Migration (April)\n\n\n\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 farther north as well as arriving herons and egrets at Green-Wood’s glacial ponds. \n\n\n\nPeak Spring Migration (May to mid-June)\n\n\n\nFrom ruby-throated hummingbirds to over twenty 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 most active time of day for birds. \n\n\n\nSummer Birding (Late June to August)\n\n\n\nIn July we should see the offspring of our resident red-tailed hawk bravely preparing to leave the nest. Warbler songs will be replaced by chirring cicadas and the tweets of fledgling birds. Butterflies and dragonflies are abundant. By late-July\, expect the arrival of the first southbound migrants. \n\n\n\nBefore Purchasing Your Ticket\, Please Note:\n\n\n\nDue to COVID-19\, this tour may be canceled.

Her highly textured work in clay\, draws on themes of genealogy\, ritual\, and the posthuman\, with sources that include Taoist mythology\, burial customs\, and the built-environment of Macau (where she spent her formative years). Gardens as Cosmic Terrains is influenced by Lau’s research into the cosmological setting within Chinese gardens\, where the arrangement of arches\, pathways\, and vistas acts as a metaphor for time\, space\, and matter—as well as a portal to access both memories and the spirit world.  \n\n\n\nThe Catacombs are an approximately 15-20 minute walk from the Main Entrance.

We’ll discover thousands of songbirds resting before their trip farther north as well as arriving herons and egrets at Green-Wood’s glacial ponds. \n\n\n\nPeak Spring Migration (May to mid-June)\n\n\n\nFrom ruby-throated hummingbirds to over twenty 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 most active time of day for birds. \n\n\n\nSummer Birding (Late June to August)\n\n\n\nIn July we should see the offspring of our resident red-tailed hawk bravely preparing to leave the nest. Warbler songs will be replaced by chirring cicadas and the tweets of fledgling birds. Butterflies and dragonflies are abundant. By late-July\, expect the arrival of the first southbound migrants. \n\n\n\nBefore Purchasing Your Ticket\, Please Note:\n\n\n\nDue to COVID-19\, this tour may be canceled.

Photo Credit: Charles Benton\n\n\n\nMay 7 – July 10\, 2022Saturdays and Sundays11:00am-5:00pm\n\n\n\nThis installation has been extended through July 10th due to popular demand! \n\n\n\nHeidi Lau became Green-Wood’s first-ever artist in residence in 2021 and her installation in the Catacombs is a culmination of a year-long exploration of the Cemetery. Her highly textured work in clay\, draws on themes of genealogy\, ritual\, and the posthuman\, with sources that include Taoist mythology\, burial customs\, and the built-environment of Macau (where she spent her formative years). Gardens as Cosmic Terrains is influenced by Lau’s research into the cosmological setting within Chinese gardens\, where the arrangement of arches\, pathways\, and vistas acts as a metaphor for time\, space\, and matter—as well as a portal to access both memories and the spirit world.  \n\n\n\nThe Catacombs are an approximately 15-20 minute walk from the Main Entrance. For directions\, pick up a map at the Main Entrance\, or access the map PDF here. \n\n\n\nFree and open to the public\, no reservations are necessary. \n\n\n\nPlease consider a donation to The Green-Wood Historic Fund so that we can continue to offer free and low-cost programs throughout the year.

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. \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“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.
