Board of Directors

The Indianapolis Masonic Temple Association, Inc.

The Association is the corporation which operates and maintains Freemasons' Hall on a day-to-day basis. It was created in April 1905 by the Lodges and other bodies then resident in the old Indianapolis Masonic Temple with a mandate to find a location for, and then to build, a new Masonic Temple in Indianapolis to replace an older structure which was crumbling and located what had become a very noisy location at the corner of Washington and Capitol Streets. This creation was providential, for in May 1906 a fire destroyed the top floor and roof of the Temple, and resulted in catastrophic water damage to the rest of the building. At that point the IMTA began looking for a new home, with the happy result of the dedication in 1909 of our current lovely building at the corner of North and Illinois Streets.

The building is owned jointly by eight stockholding constituent bodies which are resident in the building, and by the Grand Lodge of Indiana, F. & A.M. Its board consists of five representatives from the eight stockholding bodies and five representatives appointed by the Grand Master of Masons in Indiana. Its officers are elected annually from among the five representatives of the stockholding bodies.
