The programs and activities at Rockefeller Arts Center would not be possible without the generous annual financial support of some 300 families and individuals from the Western New York area. These donors, known as the Friends of Rockefeller Arts Center, provide the critical difference, allowing us to present programming that is very special.
Benefits of membership include receiving our monthly newsletter, advance notice of program changes and additions, and having your name printed in our event playbills.
