Organizational History and Profile

A local chapter of The Rosicrucian Order, AMORC, has been active in the city of Ottawa for now over 70 years.  There were 24 members present at the first meeting held on January 5, 1954, at which time the group originally went by the name, Ottawa Pronaos.  Over time the local membership grew and in 1977 took on the new name, Trillium Chapter.  At that time it met at the Odd Fellows Hall on Somerset Street, but when that building was sold, Trillium group events and convocations moved to Rosemount Hall, located at 41 Rosemount Avenue, Ottawa.   More recently, Trillium transitioned from being a Chapter to a Pronaos, to better reflect its membership numbers and phase of its cycle of growth as a local AMORC affiliated body.
