Since 1937, The Roanoke Island Historical Association’s mission is to memorialize the history of Roanoke Island, particularly through the annual production of The Lost Colony. For over 85 years, we have relied on the support of our community and supporters from all over the world to achieve this mission. The Association’s bylaws determine that funding for these endeavors can be achieved through Membership.

Your Membership Supports…

Your Membership supports the annual production of The Lost Colony. The Longest Running Outdoor Symphonic Drama in America, The Lost Colony tells the story of the first attempt at English colonization in America. Featuring a cast and crew of over 100 people every summer, stunning costumes, haunting dances, and a timeless story of hope and determination, The Lost Colony is a staple of American Theatre and North Carolina’s Outer Banks.

Your Membership supports the ability of the Roanoke Island Historical Association to provide aspiring artists a space to hone their craft while working on The Lost Colony. Since 1937, over 5,000 actors and technicians have spent a summer on Roanoke Island, and The Lost Colony is an essential training ground for these young artists. For many, The Lost Colony is their first professional theatre contract, and many of our Company Members have gone on to have successful careers on Broadway, film, and television.

Your Membership supports educational programming and workshops surrounding the Roanoke Colony, theatre education, and Native American culture. The Roanoke Island Historical Association has had the privilege of hosting Theatre Arts Camps, Children’s Shows, and Native American Cultural presentations that have enriched the lives of thousands of children, and your support ensures that we can continue to grow these programs.
