The Heart Truth® campaign took the spotlight yesterday at The George Bush Presidential Library and Museum in College Station, Texas, where campaign founding ambassador Laura Bush unveiled the latest installment of the First Ladies Red Dress Collection. The exhibit features red dresses and suits on loan from the presidential libraries and personal collections of 14 of America's first ladies, from Lou Hoover to Michelle Obama, as well as 12 celebrity red dresses from the annual Red Dress Collection Fashion Show in New York City.
Through its partnership with the Texas A&M Health Science Center, the Bush Library will host regular health screenings and educational forums and provide visitors with information about heart-related issues such as high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, and healthy lifestyles. The exhibit and events run through Aug. 2011.
