Each year the Living Well Luncheon—hosted by the A.G. Rhodes Board of Advisors—brings together business leaders, partners, the A.G. Rhodes community of care partners and families, and supporters to learn about critical aging-related issues that impact our community and to raise funds for important initiatives that greatly enhance the quality of life for our residents.
Our next Living Well Luncheon will be Thursday, February 19, 2026 at the Piedmont Driving Club. Register now!
