Closing Scheduled for Masonic Temple Purchase

West Haven, CT – July 20, 2007 – The City of West Haven will be holding the official closing on the Masonic Temple on Friday, July 20th at 11:30am. Citizens should gather on the front lawn of the old Masonic Temple about 15 minutes prior to the official time. The building is located at 304 Center Street in West Haven, Connecticut.

West Haven plans on using the Temple as a base until City Hall is renovated. This should take about 2 years. After that, the former Masonic Temple will be turned over to the WHCAC. Plans are to make it an arts center for instruction, entertainment, and various arts-related functions. The building has just been through asbestos abatement and is ready for the next stage of planning. Help us demonstrate the importance of this step in making West Haven a place for the arts. By bringing an active arts center into the community, we bring trade and energy to our city. It is a good deal for everyone.

Help us support the arts! Bring your friends!
