Fall Tarbell Teas Return To Titusville

Oil City, PA— 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 Friday, September 23 from 4-6 p.m.

Additional Tarbell Teas will be held Saturday, October 15 from 1-3 p.m., Saturday, November 19 from 1-3 p.m., and Friday, December 9 from 4-6 p.m.
