This Valentine’s Day give two precious gifts: One of love and one of life.

On Saturday, Feb.13, the Vacaville Museum partners with NorthBay Healthcare for a day of healthy hearts and sweethearts.

During the day, the Pacific Blood Center’s mobile unit will be in the museum courtyard accepting donations of critically needed, life-giving blood. In the evening, you and your sweetheart can join friends for a chocolates and champagne/wine reception in the Museum gallery.

The community blood drive is from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Donating blood is free and benefits local hospitals. From 5 to 7 p.m., relax with your sweetheart, enjoy the sweets, and support your museum at the “Love Your Museum” reception. Tickets are $25 per person and include photos with your sweetheart and a rose to take home.

For further information, contact Shawn Lum at the Vacaville Museum, by calling (707) 447-4513 or e-mail Lumdirect@sbcglobal.net.
