The words "Heart Gallery" may bring to mind photographs of arteries and valves and blood coursing through veins. But it's actually a very touching collection of photographs of children who are waiting to be adopted. There are Heart Gallery displays all over the country, one of the newest being in Michigan.

"The Michigan Heart Gallery features professional photos of some of Michigan's waiting children, who come from various regions of the state. Recruitment activities such as the Heart Gallery remind people that there are many children in Michigan who are waiting to be adopted."

The photographs in the Heart Gallery were taken by professional photographers who donated their time, and include photos of some adoptive families as well. The exhibit runs from June 7th through the 29th at Art in the Loft gallery. Read more at Michigan.gov.
