Last Saturdays: Open Classroom
June 28th , 12:00pm – 3:00pm
Mark your calendars for the last Saturday of every month! May through November, the Green-House hosts free, drop-in activities for all ages, featuring two hands-on ways to explore the art, history, and nature of Green-Wood. Design a monument, investigate a nature discovery table, record your family history, or create a painted masterpiece. Each gathering offers something different, but the goal remains the same: to spark curiosity and help families connect with each other and the Cemetery.
Price: Free
