Historic Nob HillBuilt in 1958, the Nob Hill Masonic Center has been a part of San Francisco’s culture for many years. Built of solid marble, there are many artistic features to the building, including the famous one-of-a-kind mosaic window that dominates the entrance foyer, crafted by Emile Norman. This historical window, fabricated in the endomosaic process, incorporates thousands of bits of metal, parchment, felt, linen, silk, natural foliage, thinly sliced vegetable matter, shells and sea life, plus 180 colors of stained glass.

Time for some changes…The Nob Hill Masonic Center has been a part of San Francisco’s culture for over 50 years. The building has hosted numerous concerts and special events throughout the years, from Frank Sinatra to Steely Dan, corporate conferences, naturalization ceremonies, graduations and more. Live Nation plans to renovate the auditorium & California Room to make the venue more flexible and current.
