Become a Royal Arch Mason, a Cryptic Mason, and a Knight Templar after the timeless and rich heritage of operative Masonry!
Attending one of these festivals is a great opportunity for any Master Mason who desires further Masonic Light to complete his journey through Ancient Craft Masonry by becoming a Royal Arch Mason, thus fulfilling the Second Landmark of Freemasonry and completing the Circle of Perfection by becoming a Cryptic Mason. This is also an excellent opportunity for any Christian Master Mason to become a Knight Templar and experience one of the most beautiful and inspiring ceremonies in Freemasonry.
