The Lotus Club of Monroe has been a cultural cornerstone since 1920, but what does it take to carry such a historic institution into the modern era?

In this episode of The 318 Experience, Brian is joined by Troy Lizenby, who shares his journey with the Lotus Club — from walking into a space with “lots of charm and lots of empty space” to helping revitalize its programs, culture, and community presence.

From its fascinating history and traditions to its new direction, this conversation shines a light on how the Lotus Club remains a vibrant hub of connection, fine dining, and fellowship in Northeast Louisiana.
