Masonic Hall
Inscription
The Masonic Hall, a Quonset hut on Commerce Street, was built in 1946 by Clemon W. Outten to serve Snow Hill's African American community. It was first used as a movie theatre and music venue. Howard Showell purchased it around 1955 for a youth physical fitness center. In 1965, Prince Hall Masonic Lodge #105 acquired the building to host their meetings and community events.
