The Grove Street Cemetery is many things: a site of memory and contemplation, a resource for studying the people and history of New Haven, and an arboretum with notable trees, but above all, it is a collection of geological specimens that were carefully selected and sculpted to mark the graves of local residents and families. A wide variety of sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic stones are present on the grounds, and the differences in their composition and character offer an opportunity to explore their distinctive qualities.

A very special Mondays at Beinecke online talk with three extraordinary speakers to celebrate the centennial of the birth of the extraordinary actress Geraldine Page (November 22, 1924 – June 13, 1987).
