Alumni & Friends Travel
Each year, Lipscomb offers several custom-designed, U.S.-based or global travel learning trips for alumni and friends.
The Alumni and Friends Travel program offers unforgettable journeys designed to foster connection, discovery and lifelong learning. This program blends enriching cultural experiences with the camaraderie of shared university pride. Whether exploring iconic landmarks, hidden gems or engaging with local communities, each trip is carefully curated for comfort, insight and adventure.
These trips often include activities not generally available to the public, such as when nationally recognized portrait artist and alumnus, Michael Shane Neal (’91) led a trip to the Northeast and opened doors to artists’ private studios and homes for our participants.
