Step back in time for a multi-course Victorian tea and rub elbows with characters from the oil boom portrayed by student re-enactors at Titusville’s Tarbell House on three dates this spring.

Teas will be held Saturday, March 26 from 1-3 p.m., Friday, April 8 from 4-6 p.m., and Saturday, May 14 from 1-3 p.m.

Tarbell Teas have been a favorite event in Titusville for several years, but like so many other activities, they were paused during the pandemic.

Now they’ve returned and are sure to sell out.

Cost is $20/person and pre-registration is required. Call 814.677.3152 or e-mail Jessica at jgorman@oilregion.org.

The Tarbell House was the high school home of journalism pioneer Ida Tarbell. The home is owned and operated as a house museum and event venue by the Oil Region Alliance, managing entity of the Oil Region National Heritage Area.

Information about additional upcoming teas and other events at the Tarbell House can be found on the Tarbell Facebook page at Facebook.com/TarbellHouse.
