The RFAS Ballet Committee provides volunteers to help support Carolina Ballet in its programs, outreach, and education. The group creates the opening-night bouquets each season and encourages continued support from the community.

The Executive Mansion docent program began in May of 1966, when RFAS received a request for help from Mrs. Dan K. Moore, then First Lady of North Carolina. Docents lead tours for the mansion and the gardens each spring and fall.

The new Gregg Museum opened in August 2017 on the NC State University campus, providing a home for the 40,000 objects in its collection. RFAS members have been involved with the collection project since its inception in the 1970’s and they continue to promote and support the Gregg’s activities and exhibitions.

RFAS members have had strong ties to the North Carolina Museum of Art since the Society was organized in 1965. Most of the organizing members were touring docents at the Museum. Members serve as touring docents, guides in the Museum Park, in the library, and at museum events.  Link to a NCMA Park Walking Tour Guide.

Since 1974, RFAS members have supported the North Carolina Museum of History. Volunteer opportunities include assisting with the Museum Associates’ special events and exhibition openings.

RFAS members have been serving as volunteers with the North Carolina Symphony since 1986. When the North Carolina Symphony League was formed in 2003, RFAS was represented by six of the nine founding members. Today, RFAS Symphony volunteers serve as greeters at Open Rehearsals and assist at the annual “Friends of Note” luncheon and at other special events throughout the season.
