You’re invited to our Annual Garden Party! On Sunday, July 28 from 1 to 4, Ross Bay Villa will open the gate into a charming Victorian garden and step into a unique piece of local history. 

At Ross Bay Villa Historic House Museum, the work of volunteers has brought an 1865 historic family home back to life. Come and experience a Victorian garden party! Enjoy a cup of tea and a piece of traditional pound cake while listening to award winning young musicians on the lawn. Stroll past heritage ornamental and vegetable gardens, and try your hand at a Victorian lawn game. Tour the beautifully restored interior of one of the oldest houses in Victoria, from the bright and airy drawing room to the cozy children’s bedroom. Take in the intricate details of handmade wallpaper, imagine having tea with the Roscoe family, and journey back to the days of early Victoria. 

This is a family friendly event. There is no charge to tour the house or entrance to the grounds. Tea and cake are available for $5.00. Donations to the Ross Bay Villa Society will be gratefully accepted. All funds raised during this event go to the ongoing conservation and maintenance of the Ross Bay Villa Historic House Museum. 

We look forward to seeing you there.
