The Chester Masonic Lodge and Community Building is a historic community building at Front and Dickson Streets in Chester, Arkansas. It is a two-story rectangular wood frame structure, designed to house a church and community space on the ground floor, and Masonic lodge facilities on the upper floor. It was built in 1942, replacing a 1903 building of similar function that stood at another location and was torn down to build a school. Significant elements of the old building (most notably its windows and parts of its framing) were reused in the construction of the new building.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000.[1]
