Lowell Mason House Gala

The 2nd Lowell Mason House Gala: Windows, Doors & More will take place on Friday evening, June 3rd at The Center at Medfield, One Ice House Road at 7:00 pm. There will be gourmet, wood fired pizza from Blazing Hearth Pizza, wine and beer from a cash bar, and a great selection of silent auction items. There will also be live music from The Nolan Melia Jazz/ Funk/ Blues Experience, a local band made up of young Medfield musicians. Tickets are available through the Lowell Mason House website (www.lowellmasonhouse.org); sponsorship opportunities are available on our website, as well. Inquiries and questions on the Gala can be directed to Karen Scotti at ktscotti@verizon.net.

In the past year, the House was put on permanent structural supports, got a new basement floor, a new roof and gutters, and new windows on the ground floor. All this, with the goal of making the Lowell Mason House a space for active music making and music education, arts advocacy and for preserving the legacy of our nation's first music educator, Lowell Mason, who was born in the house in 1792.

The next phase of construction includes new windows for the rest of the house, the replacement of entry doors, and new siding. Proceeds from the Gala will go towards the continued renovation of the Lowell Mason House, making it an example of how to both preserve Medfield’s past but also address the needs of today. Given the recent interest in the preservation of Medfield’s historic buildings, we hope the Gala will be a sell-out!
