The members of Mount Hollis Lodge invite residents to an Open House to raise awareness of who the Freemasons are and what they do.

On Saturday, stop by for Lodge tours, meet-and-greets, exhibits and a 1 o’clock snack and learn featuring our presiding Master of the Lodge.

Freemasonry provides opportunities for fellowship, charity, education, and leadership while creating friendship and understanding between men without regard to their nationality, religion, race, background, or opinion.

Freemasons trace their history back to the stonemason guilds that built Europe’s cathedrals and castles. Organized in Massachusetts almost 290 years ago, they have been an integral part of our nation’s history. Men like Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, Thurgood Marshall, and John Glenn are among the many famous men who joined the organization before achieving the greatness they are recognized for. Countless other men have made their communities a better place through selfless giving of their time and money. North American Freemasons donate more than $3,000,000 every day to charity; more than 70% benefitting the general public.
