GREEN-WOOD CEMETERY WALKING TOUR

UPDATE: Rescheduled for Sunday, May 5th, 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Written in Stone: A Walking Tour
Sunday, April 22nd, 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.

This walking tour of Green-wood Cemetery visits the burial sites of "the Indian Princess, the girl who died on her 17th birthday, the heartbroken husband who waved good-bye to his wife in the morning never to see her again, the man who built 'The Funny Place,' an inventor and his dog, and many more."

Wear good walking shoes and be prepared for a strenuous, hilly walk.

Green-Wood tour guide Ruth Edebohls, a licensed New York City Tour Guide and urban historian, will lead this tour.

Tickets: $10 for members of the Green-Wood Historic Fund; $15 for non-members. Making reservations is recommended. Call 718-210-3080 to buy tickets or order them online.
