About this Event

Meet and Greet in the Modern Chapel - Chapel A 

At this intimate and informal gathering, Green-Wood’s gravediggers, crematory operators, and memorial counselors, alongside local death-care-industry professionals and community members, will join together for candid and supportive conversations about death work. While mingling over light refreshments, you’ll have unprecedented access to the professionals who quietly steward our final transitions and work to demystify death care.

Free. Please consider a to the Green-Wood Historic Fund so that we can continue to offer more death education programs like this throughout the year.
