Twilight Amongst the Tombstones: Night Walk in Oak Hill Cemetery

  • Oak Hill Cemetery 4 Brown Street Newburyport, MA 01950 Newburyport, MA, 01950 United States (map)

What better time than twilight in October to grab a flashlight and join us for a walk through the historic Oak Hill Cemetery. To add to the intimacy and atmosphere of darkness, many epitaphs are easiest to read by flashlight.

Join noted author and historian Ghlee Woodworth, a 12th generation Newburyport native, for a nighttime stroll through the historic 1842 Oak Hill Cemetery, final resting place of shipwrecked sailors, sea captains and merchants, architects and photographers, writers and poets, silversmiths and newspaper editors, and adventurers who travelled to the California gold rush.

Tickets are $10 for Museum of Old Newbury Members; $20 for non-members
