Have you ever wanted to know what goes into preserving ancient cemetery stones? St. Luke’s offers free workshops to provide volunteers with the training and knowledge they need to complete minor cleaning and care of historic tombstones and monuments. These are hands-on workshops that are also intended to provide a safe space for volunteers to practice some of these new skills under the supervision of the St. Luke’s staff.
Our Cemetery Preservation Workshops not only provide our volunteers and local community with applicable knowledge of historic cemetery care but also supports the Ancient Cemetery at St. Luke’s by providing much-needed and loving care of the oldest monuments in our cemeteries.
These workshops are held on Saturdays throughout late spring, summer, and early fall. The necessary tools for the workshop are provided as well as complimentary refreshments.
Reserving a spot is encouraged as these workshops often fill to capacity months in advance.
