Speaker’s Bureau

Is your group interested in learning more about Buffalo history and Forest Lawn, its history, its residents and its heritage? We’d love to come speak at your meeting, luncheon, dinner, church group, convention, garden club meeting – or any other function where a speaker is needed. For a $60 honorarium, Forest Lawn will send a qualified speaker, complete with laptop, projector and PowerPoint presentation (your group supplies the screen and audio equipment), to talk about any of these subjects:

The History of Forest Lawn and the Rural Cemetery Movement

The Women and Gardens of Forest Lawn

Art & Architecture at Forest Lawn

The Entertainers, Musicians and Writers of Forest Lawn

Politicians & Presidents

The War of 1812

Cemetery Symbolism

Each talk lasts approximately 45 minutes, and Q&A sessions are welcomed after the talk.

For more information or to book a speaker, contact Sandy Starks, Forest Lawn Interpretive Program Director, at 885.1606, ext. 302 or by email at sstarks@forest-lawn.com.
