Thanks from Scholar Laura Redmond
"I want to thank you again for supporting my career development, and I look forward to encouraging the development of future scientists as an ARCS Scholar Alum."
In October 2024, ARCS members and their guests had the rare opportunity to see the private collection of Sue and John Wieland at The Warehouse in the Westside District. This was an especially meaningful field trip for ARCS members, as many of us remember Sue Wieland as a friend and former ARCS member. Debbie Liss opened the tour with her warm recollections of Sue Wieland.
The collection includes painting, photography, sculpture, installation art, and works on paper focusing on images and ideas of house and home, reflecting John Wieland’s career in homebuilding. At the end of our tour, we were treated to an elegant and delicious lunch, giving us a chance to visit with each other and to discuss the many intriguing and thought-provoking works of art.
"I want to thank you again for supporting my career development, and I look forward to encouraging the development of future scientists as an ARCS Scholar Alum."
The work you (ARCS Foundation Atlanta members) have all done is tremendous, and I am so proud to be a part of that legacy. I hope that my work is making you all feel that there has been a good return on your investment.
"I was very fortunate to be selected as one of this year's ARCS scholars... I plan to pursue an academic career in chemistry... Your support will allow me to continue my biomedical research in developing novel strateigies to treat drug resistant cancers and cardiovascular diseases... Again, thank you so much for your support of the sciences and post graduate education, both of which are very important in keeping America competitive..."
