Homewood Cemetery: After World War II

$20.00

The Homewood Cemetery was founded in 1878 with a purchase of 175 acres of land. Focusing on the less-explored northeastern section of the Cemetery, Jennie Benford, its long-time historian, will share her new perspective on monuments, landscapes, and communities formed after World War II. Expect to see Art Deco monuments and mausoleums, mid-20th-century landscape design experiments, and the re-emergence of highly personal epitaphs. The tour route includes views of newer sections of the Cemetery, including those for Jewish and Muslim communities
