The Master’s Chair is an official instructional manual prepared by the Leadership and Educational Services Committee of the Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of the State of New York. It serves as a comprehensive leadership and procedural guide for Worshipful Masters of constituent Lodges throughout the jurisdiction. The manual outlines the essential responsibilities, prerogatives, and expectations of the Master’s office—ranging from governance, ritual performance, Masonic law, etiquette, and communication strategies to planning Lodge programs and official visits. It includes knowledge checks, references to the Masonic Law of New York, and planning tools such as the "Your Year, Your Trestle Guide" to support a successful term in the East. The publication aims to provide both first-time and experienced Masters with the tools, knowledge, and confidence needed to lead their Lodge with dignity, purpose, and adherence to Masonic tradition.
