At the end of the exhibition, 14 of the heart sculptures will be sold in a silent auction during the Closing Reception for the Artists and Sponsors at the Village Theatre & Art Gallery.  One heart sculpture will be retained by the Town for future use and enjoyment.  The Closing Reception is scheduled for Thursday, September 17, 2019 from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Complimentary refreshments will be served.
