Photography Tour: The Beauty of Green-Wood CemeteryRegister Now!

One Saturday Session: October 2; 11:00AM – 2:00PM

Founded in 1838, The Green-Wood Cemetery evokes the romantic power of 19th century America and features vistas overlooking New York Harbor.  This tour will introduce students to a variety of Green-Wood’s exceptionally beautiful places, and offer expert knowledge of both the site and the medium of photography.  Highlights include the Chapel, Valley Water, the beautifully wooded Central Avenue, as well as the monuments of Charlotte Canda and the zinc masterpiece to Clarence McKenzie (“The Little Drummer Boy”). The giant trees, hills winding carriage paths and world-class outdoor sculpture are ideal subjects for photographical studies. Award-winning photographer Anne Day will be on hand to help students improve their camera skills, whether using a professional or consumer-grade camera.
