SUMMARY:Gravestone Girls
DESCRIPTION:“Welcome to the Graveyard!” is a 90 minute in-person ‘virtual tour’ chronicling cemetery art\, history and symbolism. From colonial New England burial grounds of the 16 & 1700s\, through the nation-wide rural cemetery movement of the 19th century and into 21st century locations\, the program examines why we have cemeteries and gravestones\, why they look like they do and how styles and art have evolved over almost 400 years. The presentation is robust with photographs of original gravestones and burial grounds from cemeteries visited by Gravestone Girls over many years\, including plenty of content from Belchertown’s local haunts! \nAbout:\nGravestone Girls create replicas of old New England tombstones in the form of wall hangings\, magnets\, coasters\, mirrors\, tombstone chocolate and more! Cast directly from originals still on cemetery landscapes\, their art is a piece of history in your hand! “Keeping Our Dead Alive” through lectures\, tours\, classes and art\, they work nationwide\, raising cemetery awareness and teaching citizens the history buried under their feet. \nThis program is funded by the Friends of the Clapp Memorial Library.
