SUMMARY:Cemetery Speaker Series: Disinterments\, Exhumations\, and Grave Robbing
DESCRIPTION:Disinterment. Exhumation. Grave Robbing. The words themselves seemingly resonate in our collective consciousness\, conjuring images of the silhouettes of misbegotten characters\, toting shovels\, sneaking into a cemetery on a dark night\, intent on their grisly work. While this cliche vignette might seem amusing\, is it true? Or does it obscure an equally macabre but far more true reality? What happens when someone’s remains are raised from the grave? How was it done in the past? Does it still happen today? And if so\, is it even legal? \nTo answer these questions and more\, we hope that you will join us for a very special October edition of the Cemetery Speaker Series to learn\, in a nutshell\, the ins and outs of disinterments\, exhumations\, and grave robbing. \nMark S. Zaid\, a Washington\, D.C. based attorney and legal expert\, will be providing an overview presentation of human exhumations and grave robbing\, drawing from his own experiences throughout his career. After his remarks\, one of our docents will lead attendees on a thematic walking tour of the cemetery grounds related to the cemetery’s history with all types of exhumations\, including the theft of an Attorney General’s skull\, moving a Vice President’s body\, the mass exhumation of Chinese migrants\, and more. \nTickets are only $5 and all proceeds go to benefit our non-profit mission of historical preservation and education. Space is limited so be sure to reserve your spot today! Keynote remarks will take place either outside or inside the Chapel\, weather depending\, and the walking tour will take place on the grounds. The tour is approximately 45 minutes in length. Please come prepared with comfortable clothing and shoes\, as the tours often stray from the main paths. \nThe event is rain or shine. Smoking is prohibited and dogs are not allowed to attend the event unless they are a service animal. \nYou may reserve your spot below.

SUMMARY:Soul Strolls: Scandal & Slander
DESCRIPTION:Few American cities embody scandal quite like Washington\, D.C. As the heart of political power and prestige throughout U.S. history\, Washington has been the stage for some of the nation’s most infamous scandals. Where power thrives\, controversy follows\, and the truth remains elusive. Slander\, libel\, and gossip have all shaped and skewed the historical record\, making it challenging to separate fact from fiction. Many of the people at the center of these scandals—or who became infamous themselves—lived\, worked\, and died in the nation’s capital. But who were these individuals? What are their stories? \nThis fall\, we invite you to uncover tales of scandal from the residents of Congressional Cemetery—a macabre glimpse into D.C.’s notorious past. Discover how their legacies endure in our collective memory. Encounter those shrouded in the past\, brought vividly to life by our talented actors\, and witness them as they tell their stories. Join us for Soul Strolls 2024: Scandal and Slander. \nOur annual twilight tours explore the stories of individuals buried here through a guided lantern lit tour of the grounds with costumed interpreters. Experience the history of this hallowed ground exactly the way it should be experienced in October – in twilight and darkness\, immersed in vignettes of the lives of our interred residents. \nDetails: \nSoul Strolls take place over four nights\, October 18-19 and October 25-26. Hour-long tours depart every 15 minutes between 6:00 and 9:30 pm on Fridays (Oct 18\, Oct 25) and between 5:00 PM- 9:30 PM on Saturdays (Oct 19\, Oct 26). Gates open a half hour prior to the first tour start time. We recommend arriving at least 15 minutes prior to your tour start time. Tours depart from the chapel\, also known as the “Tavern of Lost Souls” during the event. Come and enjoy live music\, thematic cocktails\, and the ambiance of an evening in the cemetery. Costumes are encouraged and welcomed from attendees! \nVIP Tours: \nWe offer exclusive VIP tours as a part of Soul Strolls! On Fridays\, the 7:00 PM and 8:00 PM are exclusively VIP.

SUMMARY:Dia De Los Muertos At Congressional Cemetery
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an extraordinary celebration of Dia De Los Muertos at Historic Congressional Cemetery. In collaboration with special guest and Capitol Hill resident\, Rosa Moreno\, we will transform the chapel in the center of our grounds into a place of learning\, remembrance\, and celebration of the “Day of the Dead.” \n“I have been in DC for 14 years and a resident of the Capitol Hill area. I was born and raised in the southwest\, AZ and TX. I come from a Mexican-American family that has been in the southwestern part of the country for generations. \nDay of the dead is one of my favorite holidays because we get to set aside a day to celebrate our loved ones that have passed. It’s a festive celebration full of life and joy. \nIt’s a great pleasure to celebrate this year in such a historic and treasured location.  Excited to come together with our neighbors to share this special occasion.” \nDia de Los Muertos is a celebration that honors ancestors and connects the living with the dead. For our celebration\, we welcome the public to join us in the spirit of the holiday by bringing your memories to add to a community ofrenda at the cemetery. Bring photos of people you have loved and have lost to death as well as mementoes representing them: the foods and symbols of the things they loved and memories you shared. We will share stories about those who are gone\, learn about the traditions of Dia De Los Muertos and similar customs around the world\, and join the community around remembrance and mourning. \nOn November 2 at 11am\, guests are invited to join us at the historic chapel in the center of the cemetery where an enormous community ofrenda will honor the ancestors. The public is welcomed to bring photos of loved ones to add to the community ofrenda\, as well as foods to share that your person or people enjoyed. Join us to decorate sugar skulls\, make paper flowers\, and learn about the holiday. No experience necessary. \nIn addition\, the cemetery is collaborating with Crayola Flowers for a special way to celebrate the holiday\, beautify our grounds\, and honor those buried at our historic cemetery. Participants can purchase flowers to bring to the graves of loved ones and any graves with special meaning to you. The cemetery will also have flowers available for our Dia De Los Muertos participants to decorate graves of your choice throughout the cemetery. \nAt the end of the celebration we will gather outside in a procession around the chapel and out to open the gate to bid the ancestors farewell\, inviting them to return again next year. \nAre you joining us? CLICK HERE to let us know to expect you. You will receive a reminder a few days before November 2. \nNotes: \n·      What is an ofrenda? CLICK HERE \n·      Let’s bring copies of photos\, only\, please. You are welcome to scan photos and email them for us to print them out. \n·      All items on the ofrendas will be donated or recycled if not taken home on the 3rd. \n·      Please bring foods to share that your person enjoyed in disposable containers or ones you will bring home. \nThis is a community event and free of charge offered by the Cemetery’s nonprofit foundation. Donations to the Foundation are welcomed and help us open the grounds for these impactful gatherings. Donations of your time helping out during the event\, of flowers\, and of food to share all serve our goal in offering death education and awareness activities at our historic cemetery\, the Greatest Undertaking in DC! \nQuestions? You can reach our Death Doula in Residence\, Laura Lyster-Mensh at Deathdoula@congressionalcemetery.org \nLearn more: \nPBS News Hour \nWhat is Día de los Muertos?

SUMMARY:Cemetery Speaker Series: Remembering Daniel Smith\, "Son of a Slave" Author
DESCRIPTION:Son of a man born enslaved in 1863 during the Civil War\, Daniel Smith (1932-2022) was living proof that slavery is not distant history. His father\, 70 years old when Dan was born\, taught him to work hard and carry himself well\, even in difficult circumstances. In his educational\, professional\, and social pursuits\, Dan lived those lessons. He was both witness to and participant in nearly a century of struggle for Black Americans to advance in a nation founded on separatist principles. For the intersections he had with historical events\, political leaders\, and other luminaries\, he is often called the “Black Forrest Gump.” In his memoir Son of a Slave\, completed just before he died on Oct. 19\, 2022 at age 90\, Smith offered a first-hand account of the actions\, policies\, and people that have helped or hindered the United States from fulfilling the promise that “all men are created equal.” \nIn this first 2025 entry of the Cemetery Speaker Series\, Historic Congressional Cemetery welcomes guest speaker Loretta Neumann\, Daniel Smith’s wife\, to reflect on her husband’s life and legacy. \nTickets are only $10 and all proceeds go to benefit our non-profit mission of historical preservation and education. Space is limited so be sure to reserve your spot today! Keynote remarks will take place either outside or inside the Chapel\, weather depending\, and the walking tour will take place on the grounds. The tour is approximately 45 minutes in length. Please come prepared with comfortable clothing and shoes\, as the tours often stray from the main paths. Sign up below!
