Distinguished Speaker Series

Harmonie Lodge’s first distinguished speaker series kicked off on October 26, 2011. W:. Andrew Hammer, past master of Alexandria-Washington Lodge No. 22 and author of Observing the Craft: The Pursuit of Excellence in Masonic Labour and Observance, presented a thought provoking lecture on Masonry in transition and the need to be truly "observant" in our Craft. We had many visiting brethren in attendance from Districts as far away as Monroe and Cattaraugus County.


Our next distinguished speaker is coming to the Ronald J. Keel Fellowcraft Club on March 28, 2012. We will have the honor of welcoming R:. W:. Richard Friedman, Chairman of the Custodians of the Work for the Grand Lodge of New York. In the second half of 2012 we hope to host W:. Shawn Eyer, past master of Academia Lodge No. 847, the premiere Traditional Observance Lodge in California, and editor of  Philalethes: The Journal of Masonic Research and Letters, the most highly regarded quarterly magazine focusing on Masonic history, symbolism, philosophy, ritual, and art.
