In 1980, she was elected as an Associate of the Royal Scottish Academy; she became a full member in 1992.〔 In 1983, she was elected president of the Society of Scottish Artists.〔 She was appointed as a member of the Royal Fine Art Commission for Scotland in 1995.〔 Rae also became a member of the Royal Academy of Art in 1996.
