About this Event

Discover the remarkable legacies of trailblazing lesbian figures who have shaped American history and culture on this unique Green-Wood trolley tour. Join us as we journey through the Cemetery's hallowed grounds, paying tribute to a diverse array of influential women—sculptors, painters, educators, writers, critics, activists, suffrage leaders, and medical pioneers. This first-ever tour focusing on lesbian icons, is led by Andrew Dolkartt, Co-Director of the NYC LGBT Historic Sites Project and Columbia University Historic Preservation Professor, and Neela Wickremesinghe, the Robert A. and Elizabeth Rohn Jeffe Director of Restoration and Preservation at Green-Wood. Don't miss this opportunity to honor and explore the profound contributions of these pioneering women.
