Historic Preservation

Preservation Foundation

 

On June 16, 2019 the Pennsylvania Museum and Historic Commission’s Board of Directors unanimously recommended the application of the Erie Masonic Temple building to be placed on the National Historic Register.   On August 31, 2020, the National Park Service formally named the Erie Masonic Temple to the National Register of Historic Places.

The Erie Masonic Temple Preservation Foundation was established in July 2019 to preserve and restore the historic Erie Masonic Temple.  The Foundation is hard at work, and has already received two grants from local government and NGO grantors to preserve this architectural treasure. 

On June 12, 2020 the Erie Masonic Temple Preservation Foundation received public charity status and is tax exempt under IRC code 501(c)(3).

Vision 

The creation of a 501(c)(3) foundation was authorized by the Board of Directors of the Erie Masonic Temple Association to support the preservation and restoration of the building, by virtue of raising funds via grants, fundraising activities and events, and individual contributions.

Upcoming Events

We look forward to welcoming you to our building for our Foundation fundraisers.

Keep us in mind for your own private functions and celebrations!
