May Tea @The Old Barracks Museum

Sunday May 3, 2026
12:00 PM - 2:00 PM

Join us for tea at the Old Barracks Museum! Our May Tea event is a semi-formal tea service, with all proceeds supporting the museum's operations. The May Tea recalls the Pink Tea, an event that the women of the Old Barracks Association held to raise funds for the purchase and restoration of the barracks. Included with the purchase of a ticket is a tea service featuring various teas, finger sandwiches, and pastries, as well as a teacup to take home.

Seats are limited, and tickets will likely sell out quickly. Teacup color will vary and cannot be reserved in advance. Brunch attire is suggested, and don't forget to wear your best hat for a chance to win a prize in the hat contest! The May Tea will be held on Sunday, May 3rd. Tickets are $40 for members and $45 for non-members. Tickets will be available on March 30th.
