‘Philly Masonic Temple re-dedication’

   
GL of Pennsylvania

Are you busy on St. John’s Day? The brethren of Pennsylvania will re-dedicate the Masonic Temple in Philadelphia, the Grand Lodge’s headquarters with all the cool rooms and artwork, that day. From the scant publicity:



Join us on Saturday, June 24 at a re-dedication ceremony for the Masonic Temple in Philadelphia, celebrating its 150th anniversary this year! The event will begin at 3 p.m., with free guided tours of the building before and after. Livestream the ceremony here.


Disclaimer: I pitched the idea of attending to a trusted brother in NJLORE as an ideal way to enjoy a Masonic St. John the Baptist Day, and his answer was returned: “It’s a good thought. Problem is, it’s part of the annual Philly summer festival in Center City. Crowds be like absolute madness. Music concerts, street venders. Nearly impossible to get into the city and impossible to park anywhere. Even public transportation will be chaotic.”

So traveler beware.

A sign of the times.
