Hayes Museum Focuses On Fashion And Heart Health
High fashion isn’t likely to come to mind when thinking of initiatives championed by the White House. Yet, fashion was the vehicle chosen by former First Lady Laura Bush to focus the nation’s attention on women’s heart health. Heart disease is the number-one killer of women.
Laura Bush is founding ambassador of The Heart Truth’s The Red Dress, a national awareness campaign that warns women about heart disease and the need to take action against its risk factors. The campaign uses a red dress as its symbol.
Now, the Rutherford B. Hayes Presidential Center joins the cause. Its newest exhibit
“Dressed for Life: First Ladies & Red Dress Collection®” brings together nine red dresses worn
by First Ladies with a selection of designer dresses worn in past Red Dress shows in New York. The exhibit continues through January 4, 2016. It is made possible through funding from The Fremont Company.
The Hayes Presidential Center is located at the corner of Hayes and Buckland avenues in Fremont, Ohio.
