Thank you to everyone who joined us on Sunday for Tea & Tales of the Piedmont at historic Welbourne. Our living history interpreters brought the experiences of local women during the Civil War to life, sharing stories of family, loss, uncertainty, and resilience. We’re so grateful to everyone who dedicated time and energy to make the afternoon special- and to all of you who came out to enjoy tea & tales of our region with us!

Join us on August 30th for an afternoon of tea, conversation, and storytelling at historic Welbourne! As you enjoy a formal tea service, interpreters in period dress will visit each room to share the stories of Piedmont women whose lives were forever changed by the Civil War (men are also welcome to attend!). Through their words, guests will meet mothers, daughters, wives, and neighbors who faced uncertainty, loss, and resilience on the Virginia home front. Experience history in an intimate setting and discover the personal stories that often go untold.
