What Masonry is

Masonry is the world's first and largest fraternal organization, and is based on the belief that each man has a responsibility to help make the world a better place. Through our culture of philanthropy, we make a profound difference for our brothers, our families, our communities, and our future.

When we meet

Channel Islands Lodge No. 214 meets the first Thursday of every month with a dinner starting at 6:30 P.M. (Reservations Required) and the meeting starting at 7:30 P.M. and we would like to invite all Brethren visiting the Ventura, California area to attend. Degree work on other Thursdays at 6:30 P.M.

What we do

Channel Islands Lodge No. 214, located in Downtown Ventura, California, is a very active Lodge. In addition to our normal Fraternal activities, we participate in such activities as the Ventura St. Patrick’s Day Parade, serving at the Ventura County Rescue Mission, Build A Bed at the Animal Shelter and supporting our local Raising A Reader Program.
