Oft Unseen Art from the Lodge


On my Masonic virtual travels, I've stumbled on Bro Ken's blogsite and from that other wonderful links. One of which is this art show of Masonic artifacts. To view the flash interactive exhibit, click on the title.


"Oft Unseen: Art from the Lodge and Other Secret Societies, exhibited from February 20th through March 20th, 2004.

The exhibition presented the Webb Collection of art, artifacts and ephemera from the Freemasons and other secret fraternal organizations including The Odd Fellows, Knights of Pythias, Knights Templar, Order of Red Men and many others.

While not all of these organizations consider themselves truly secret societies they can all be considered societies with secrets. This exhibition provided a rare glimpse into the visual components of these mysterious and commonly misunderstood organizations."
