‘Regalia and Obscura’
An exciting week coming at the Chancellor Robert R. Livingston Masonic Library. First and foremost, do not forget Bro. Patrick Craddock’s lecture tomorrow night. The famous maker of bespoke Masonic regalia will speak on “Admit Him If Properly Clothed: The Evolution of the Masonic Apron in America, 1740 to the Present.” 6 p.m. Click here for more information.
On your way to lodge Thursday, if you happen to see a group of wide-eyed strangers gathering, they would be members of the Obscura Society taking an organized (and sold out) tour of the Library. An interesting group worth having a look at.
The Livingston Library is located on the 14th floor of Masonic Hall, at 71 West 23rd Street in Manhattan.
