About this Event

Hop on board our cozy, warm trolley for an expert-led tour of Green-Wood's historic landscape and some of the Cemetery’s most intriguing permanent residents. Whether you're a first-time visitor or a seasoned explorer, this is your chance to experience 478 acres of art, history, and nature. Walk in the footsteps of George Washington and his troops during the Battle of Brooklyn; visit the grave of Jean-Michel Basquiat, one of America’s greatest artists; and discover so much more!
