The Livingston Library is proud to announce the eighth lecture of our 2019 free monthly lecture series. This month’s lecture will feature journalist Jack Willoughby, who will discuss how the teachings of Ancient Freemasonry influenced George Washington’s development of a uniform symbol for the American Republic in the Union Army. Additionally, Willoughby’s discourse will explore the Ancient mysteries and their contribution to the development of Freemasonry and the difference between Ancient Freemasonry and our contemporary Grand Lodge structure.
