Visitors to the Wallace D. Wilson Museum in the Denton A. Cooley building will see the
Celebration of Hearts art collection. Distinguished individuals worldwide have contributed to this project which was initiated by Houston celebrity Warner Roberts. Ms. Roberts devoted more than two years to organizing this unique collection. Astronauts, athletes, U.S. Presidents past and present, artists, actors, musicians and more have donated and sometimes created their interpretations of celebrating hearts. The stunning collection contains more than 130 pieces. The Celebration of Hearts is so large that portions of the collection are also displayed on the fifth floor hallway leading to the Ansary Atrium.
