Welcome to the Seventh Annual MRF Symposium!

The Masonic Restoration Foundation Symposium is the largest gathering of Masons in North America who are expressly committed to observing the highest standards of excellence in the Craft. This year we are delighted to be holding this important event in the intimate and early 20th century environment of the Asheville Masonic Temple in Asheville, North Carolina.

The Symposium will take place from August 19-21, with meetings conducted in both the Lodge Room and the Theatre. The event will begin with a Harmony [Festive Board] held in the Temple Dining Hall on Friday evening, conducted by the brethren of Sophia Lodge No. 767, and featuring comments from our Keynote Speaker, Robert L. D. Cooper, Curator of the Grand Lodge of Scotland. Along with our usual lineup of interesting speakers, brothers will have the opportunity to see a Master Mason degree conferred by our two hosting observant lodges, Veritas Lodge No. 769, and Sophia Lodge No. 767. Registration for the Symposium is $125.00, and $75.00 for Saturday sessiononly.

We are hoping that this will be one of the best symposiums yet, and we have secured special rates for accommodation at two hotels directly across from the Temple. All the information you need to participate is found here on this web site. We look forward to seeing you at the Symposium!
