The Rock-a-Thon is the museum’s annual rocking chair marathon and membership drive that supports annual operations and upkeep to the Riley House as well as featuring performances from Tallahassee’s most notable arts and cultural organizations.
The 18th Annual Culture to Culture Rock-a-Thon will be held on SATURDAY, DECEMBER 2nd, 2017 from 9:00 A.M. until 3:00 P.M. at Cascades Park. Proceeds from participating churches, civic, religious and social groups are used to support Riley Museum's programmatic operations. Despite challenging economic times, the Riley Museum has continued serving the community by carrying out our mission to discover, archive and illuminate the blended interrelationship of various cultures through the preservation of African American landmarks and legacies.
Admission is free and open to the public
To participate in the Rock-a-Thon, an initial donation of $100 guarantees a chair for your organization. Each organization is responsible for soliciting monetary pledges, museum memberships and individuals to represent their organization. At the end of the event, the top three (3) fundraising organizations will be recognized with a cash prize to support a charity of their choice. Names of the winning organizations will also be embossed on rocking chairs that are prominently displayed on the porch of the historic Riley Museum for an entire year!
