Please visit Marie Deraismes Lodge Website
Marie Deraismes Lodge # 352 is located in the heart of New York City, Manhattan, and is one of the oldest Lodges in the U.S.
Our Lodge was named for Marie Deraismes not only to honor one of the founding members of Le Droit Humain, who opened the doors to the admission of women on the basis of full equality into Freemasonry, but also because the life’s work of Marie Deraismes exemplified in her actions (social benevolent activities) and conduct (enlightened ideas) the Masonic ideals of Liberty, Equality and Fraternity.
She believed in the absolute freedom of conscience of each individual; she believed in the fundamental right, based on natural law, giving each individual the potential of spiritual development based on ancient traditions and continuous study; and she believed in equal justice for all based on her compassion for Humanity.
Our Lodge meets on the 2nd Saturday of the month.
