Hi Decadent Dames,

Well it's time for a "high brow" event on Saturday, May 5th with a tour of the Cave Creek Museum followed by High Tea at "The English Rose Tea Room" in Carefree. What a lovely day to wear our fanciest Red Chapeaux. We will begin the day at 10:00am with a 1 1/2 hour tour of the museum, followed by a visit to the museum gift shop. Then we will be off to "The English Rose Tea Room" for our "Duchess of Bedford Formal Afternoon Tea" at 12:30pm ....which leaves us time to shop at the Tea Room's delightful gift shop before we go in for tea. You may choose to join us for the museum tour only, the afternoon tea only, or both.

The Museum's presence in the community expanded in February 1987 when its current building was completed. An extensive collection of prehistoric and historic artifacts describe the lives of Indians, miners, ranchers and pioneers. The Museum Shop offers visitors gifts, Indian arts, and an extensive selection of books on the Southwest.

In 1988, the old museum building was beautifully restored to its 1950's charm when it was the first Episcopal Church in Cave Creek. The historic Church is now part of the Cave Creek Museum collection and is available to the public for church services, weddings, baptisms and other functions.

The Museum's original Tubercular cabin, one of 16 cabins that made up a local TB camp, was placed on the National register of Historic Places in November 2002. According to the Arizona Historical Society, this TB cabin is the last original cabin remaining in the state of Arizona . In the 1920's and 1930's, these primitive cabins were the last hope for tuberculosis patients.
