The Woodlawn Cemetery is the final resting place of more than 8,500 individuals who served our nation in the U.S. Armed Forces. An annual tradition, Woodlawn honors America’s heroes by placing flags on veterans’ gravesites in the lead-up to Memorial Day. woodlawnconservancy.givecloud.co/product/DF6F9C…
May is here and it's hard to believe! We've got a lineup of tours and events, including some open to everyone, a few private gatherings that we'll highlight later on, and the grandest of them all - Memorial Day Flagging! woodlawn.org/conservancy/to…
In celebration of Arbor Day members of Woodlawn Cemetery's staff and Interns from Woodlawn's Bridge To Crafts Careers Landscape program planted a white oak near the grave of Herman Melville. #ArborDay #Celebration #WoodlawnCemetery #HermanMelville #EnvironmentalConservation
Congratulations are in order for Barbara Selesky, our esteemed Director of Sales and Marketing, on her receipt of the "Beacon of Hope" award at the 32nd Annual Fellowship Breakfast hosted by the 47 Precinct Community Council.
The interns are hard at work! The landscape interns have been weeding and pruning our historic gardens, while the Masonry interns have been cleaning one of the largest monuments at Woodlawn. We couldn't have asked for better weather or for a better group of interns!
At Woodlawn, you'll find exquisite spring flowers gracing both the exterior and interior! Within our mausoleums, several stained glass windows depict detailed floral scenes. Here is just one of them!
Joe Wilder will be just one of the 8,500 veterans that we will honor this Memorial Day Flagging. To sign up as a Woodlawn 2024 Memorial Day Flagging volunteer or become a sponsor, click here: tinyurl.com/2ecuf6p7
Woodlawn's Annual Earth Day Celebration is happening on Sunday, April 21st from 11AM to 2PM. Check out the event details in @TimeOutNewYork! timeout.com/newyork/things…
B2CC in Central Park: The masonry interns delved into the park's preservation initiatives, while the landscape interns contributed to the restoration of the garden and lawn adjacent to the natural history museum. It was truly an great day!
Famed Jazz trumpeter Clark Terry served his country in the U.S. Navy from 1942-1945. As we approach the 2024 Memorial Day Flagging event at Woodlawn, we aim to honor the 8,600 cherished veterans resting here. If you're interested in volunteering: tinyurl.com/2ecuf6p7
There is still time to plan for April's Tours and Events at Woodlawn! To learn more about these events and others, please visit our website for additional information and details! woodlawn.org/conservancy/to…
On Monday, the landscape interns visited the Bronx Zoo! They assisted the maintenance staff in removing invasive species from a wildlife and nature trail. Additionally, they had the opportunity to meet and interact with some amiable animal ambassadors.
Our Memorial Day Flagging is just ONE month away! Join us in our annual ritual of placing flags on the gravesites of over 8,600 veterans. You can participate any day between Saturday, May 18-Sunday, May 26. To sign up as a volunteer or become a sponsor: tinyurl.com/2ecuf6p7

The Woodlawn Cemetery and Conservancy is extremely grateful to Bronx Borough President, Vanessa Gibson @bronxbp, and Councilmember, Eric Dinowitz @EricDinowitzNYC, for their continued support. This capital grant will help improve our infrastructure and facilities!
We want to extend our gratitude to the Randall's Island Park Alliance for hosting our interns yesterday! We had the opportunity to contribute to establishing borders for a wilderness trail. Despite the inclement weather, it proved to be an incredibly rewarding experience!
Embracing renewal and vibrant beauty this Easter season, as captured in the intricate lily stained glass here at Woodlawn.💛 #lily #stainedglass #stainedglasswindows #happyeaster #easterseason
As we continue our annual ritual of flagging each military veteran’s grave in the lead up to the Memorial Day, we honor Tuskegee Airman Ivan Bynoe. Bynoe served our nation during WWII as an officer with the 477th Bomber Group. #TuskegeeAirmenCommemorationDay
On Monday, the interns ventured to Untermyer Park and Gardens, eager to assist in tidying up garden beds. Undeterred by the chilly conditions, they joyfully engaged in raking and pruning, relishing the opportunity to contribute to the park's beauty. #workforcedevelopment
