Lions for Life Visits Athens On Wednesday, October 14, more than 35 members of Lions for Life traveled to Athens to visit R. Wood Studio. Rebecca Williams Wood ’73 opened R. Wood Studio in 1991. Since then, it has grown to one of the largest pottery studios in America where each piece is entirely made by hand. Participants enjoyed listening to Wood explain the artistic process behind creating the pottery, as well as touring the studio and purchasing R. Wood’s one-of-a-kind pieces. Afterwards, the group enjoyed lunch at Hugh Acheson’s Five and Ten restaurant. Lions for Life is a Lovett organization created to help Parents of Alumni remain connected to the school and to one another. If you are a Parent of Alumni and are interested in learning more about Lions for Life activities and campus-wide events, please send your email address to lionsforlife@lovett.org or visit www.lovett.org/lionsforlife.
