A Close look at the Belmont Circle in Island Cemetery


Island Cemetery is an outdoor sculpture museum featuring the works of noted architects and artists. The most impressive family burial lot is the final resting place for members of the Perry, Belmont, and Tiffany families. Anchored by a massive Greek exedra designed by Richard Morris Hunt, the site also features elaborate monuments for family members. This presentation will focus on the people beneath the monuments. They were members of New York and Newport society, soldiers, sailors and more. Join us to find out about them and the connection to the Belmont Chapel. This lecture is offered on March 26th and 29th at 2:30 pm.
