Cremation: History and Modern Process

Green-Wood is proud to partner with Bard Graduate Center to present Border Crossings: This and Other Worlds. The weekend of programs and performances at Green-Wood explores the physical and metaphysical border between life and death.

Saturday, November 3, 2018; 3:30 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.
Cremation: History and Modern Process
Amy Cunningham, death educator, leads this presentation of cremation history and its impact on present-day and future funerals. This engaging and sometimes even light-hearted exploration will also touch on how to choose an end-of-life mode of disposition that expresses your own beliefs and values. Afterward, you will have the opportunity to visit the crematory with Gema LaBoccetta, Green-Wood’s Crematory Manager.
This program is presented as part of Reimagine End of Life, a weeklong series of programs and events exploring big questions about life and death.
Cost: Free
Location: Green-Wood’s Modern Chapel (Green-Wood’s Modern Chapel is a one-minute walk from its main entrance. Green-Wood’s main entrance is located at 25th Street and 5th Avenue in Brooklyn.)
