August 8 - August 9, 2025
2025-08-08T18:00:52 - 2025-08-09T00:00:52

Thursday, March 6, 2025 marked the 250th Anniversary of Prince Hall Freemasonry. This year, Prince Hall Freemasons all around the world will be celebrating the initiation of Prince Hall and fourteen other men of color into the oldest fraternity in the world on Castle William Island in Boston Harbor, on March 6, 1775, exactly 250 years ago on this date. Prince Hall was a former slave who later became a prominent member of the African American community in Boston, Massachusetts. He was an advocate for education rights and the abolition of slavery.

The 250th Anniversary Celebration Banquet will be held on the weekend of August 8-9. The distinguished speaker for the evening is RW Brother Dr. Oscar Alleyne, Past Junior Grand Warden of New York. Brother Alleyne is an internationally respected Masonic speaker and practical thought leader having presented over 200 lectures covering multiple areas of interest to over 8000 Freemasons and has published in several widely distributed Masonic journals, research bodies and educational conferences on Freemasonry.

The reception on August 8 will be held at the Dedham Boston Hilton Hotel from 6pm-10pm and the banquet on the 9th will be held at the William E. Reed Auditorium, 24 Washington Street Dorchester, MA from 6 p.m.-7 p.m. (cocktail hour), 7:30 (dinner) and the program to begin by 9 p.m.. The attire for this event is semi-formal.
