The organization owns and operates the two-acre Beaufort Historic Site, which depicts 18th and 19th century life in Beaufort and includes twelve buildings, nine of which are historic ranging from circa 1732 to 1859. The site nestled in the center of the National Registered Historic District is open to the public for tours and is staffed six-days a week September through May, and seven days a week June through August. The Robert W. and Elva Faison Safrit Historical Center provides information on area events and services and is known as the Visitors’ Information Center for Beaufort. Educational programs are offered year round to school groups, with tours of the town on a vintage English double-decker bus, tours of the Old Burying Ground, and tours of the buildings on the Historic Site. The preservation and restoration projects on the Historic Site have received numerous national and state awards. As Beaufort celebrates 300 years of life and history, there is no greater time to be part of the Beaufort Historical Association. Friends of the Museum North Carolina Maritime Museum, Inc. The purposes of the Friends are to assist, promote and enhance the programs and functions of the North Carolina Maritime Museum through contributions of labor, technical skills, services, equipment or money. The Friends of the Museum is a private, non-profit organization forging a public/private partnership between supporters of our state’s rich maritime heritage and the state of North Carolina. Patrons of the museum organized “Friends” in 1979 as a way for the entire state to help the North Carolina Maritime Museum grow and prosper. Friends of the Museum goes the extra distance to ensure that our state’s maritime heritage will always be preserved and cherished and that our citizens will have access to it. "Friends" works with the museum by underwriting new projects, purchasing equipment, funding educational and public awareness programs and acquiring land and facilities needed for expansion. The "Friends" organization has acquired thirty acres of waterfront in Beaufort, and plans to help the museum develop this property. The “Gallants Channel Annex” will provide new and exciting ways for the public and scholars to experience maritime history.
