11 a.m. A Community of Souls Walking Tour
Saturday, May 14, 2011
Green-Wood, a National Historic Landmark and great outdoor museum, is also a community of souls. Visiting Green-Wood’s monuments and memorials is a unique chance to relate our own modern lives to the shared struggles and joys of those who went before us. In this tour, led by Green-Wood’s Manager of Education & Outreach Steven Estroff, we‘ll hear behind-the-scenes stories of lives well-led, good ideas gone wrong and passions run amok. Tour-goers will also be introduced to the vast array of symbolism on 19th- and early 20th-century monuments.
$10 for Green-Wood Historic Fund members / $15 for non-members. Reservations strongly recommended. Click here to purchase tickets online.
Green-Wood’s public programs are made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature, as well as the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs.
