Hearts for Arts at the Dennos- resizedThe Dennos Museum Center at Northwestern Michigan College invites visitors to share their love for art by voting with their hearts. As part of a national program called Hearts for Art, visitors can use paper hearts to vote for their favorite work.

Join us and other museums across the country as we launch the Hearts for Art project from February 7th through the 14th, 2016. Museum visitors may pick up a paper heart from the front desk, place it in front of their favorite work of art, and snap and share a photo (no flash) using the hashtags #heartsforart and #dennos. We’ll be keeping track of everyone’s favorites and sharing them on our social media sites. You can follow us on Facebook at: Dennos Museum Center, Twitter: @TheDennos, and Instagram: @dennosmuseumcenter for updates throughout the week. On Valentine’s Day we will be offering a buy one, get one admission special. So bring your date and show some love to the art at the Dennos! (more…)
