Do I have to be invited?
No, and you should never wait to be invited. Masons are prohibited
from asking others to join the fraternity to insure that candidates
come of their own free will.
As with many things Masonic, there are some exceptions to this rule.
Some Grand Lodges allow solicitation, such as in the form of an
information kiosk, provided it is low-key and with the strict
provision that no pressure be applied. Still, you don't *need* to be
invited in any jurisdiction; and if you're interested, act.
