Hands-on Cemetery Workshop in the Old Burying Ground

Cleaning the headstones in Sag Harbor

This week (May 19 – 24), Joel Snodgrass, stone conservator, and Zach Studenroth, SHHM President will be working on straightening, cleaning and restoring the 12 Beebee family headstones in the Old Burying Ground.

Six (6) were severely damaged during the Hurricane of 1938, requiring true restoration techniques; six others require cleaning and righting. Consider this an open invitation to join us Tuesday May 20th with the latter efforts. Come help us clean the stones and learn more about Sag Harbor’s incredible history while you work. Wear “work clothes” and sensible shoes.
