Register now for the 2026 Noble Academy Membership & Marketing Conference, presented by the Shriners International Education Foundation (SIEF). The event will take place in historic Washington, D.C., November 6-8, 2026. Set in a city deeply connected to the history and legacy of Freemasonry, this year’s conference will feature new speakers, engaging topics and an exciting location rich with tradition. Attendees will also have the opportunity to take part in special excursions to sites of Masonic significance, including experiences available exclusively to conference participants.
This conference will offer practical learning opportunities, fresh ideas and meaningful connections to support membership growth and engagement across our fraternity. All members are welcome to attend, especially those serving in leadership roles such as membership and marketing chairmen, club and unit leaders, Divan members and other members of the nobility focused on growing and strengthening our fraternity. Spouses are welcome and encouraged to attend.
The 2025 conference was filled with moments of collaboration, inspiration, lively discussions, idea sharing and planning for the future. If you were fortunate to attend and contribute, we would love for you to return for our 2026 event. If not, we ask that you join our community of Noble Academy learners!
