The first Thursday of the Month is our Museum Late where we're open until 8pm for you to enjoy our exhibition galleries.

This month, join Emma Roberts, Collections Manager and Registrar to discover more about some of the symbolism used in Freemasonry.

For centuries Freemasons have used symbols to reinforce moral lessons and, when these are combined with the words used in the ceremonies, it helps create an atmosphere of learning. At this month’s Museum Late, you will get the chance to handle some of the badges, known as “jewels”, worn by Freemasons during these ceremonies and discover more about their meaning.

We'll also be on hand to point out other highlights of the collection and the Cafe and Bar at Freemasons' Hall will be open for you to enjoy after your visit.
