Don’t miss the free photo exhibition and opening reception, at noon Nov. 2, of Save a Child’s Heart, an Israeli-based international humanitarian project, on display this November at Lone Star College Cy-Fair Branch Library.

This exhibition of 34 large (approximately 2 feet by 3 feet) photos tells the story of Israeli doctors repairing children’s hearts from the children at home, in the operating room in Israel and their stages of recuperation.

In addition to the photo display, LSC-CyFair will offer visitors the opportunity to view three Israeli TV station video news clips highlighting some of the patients and doctors, (in Hebrew with English subtitles.) 

Sponsoring this exhibition is LSC-CyFair Windows On the World, Save a Child’s Heart, Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Consulate General of Israel to the Southwest.

This exhibition will also be displayed at Rice University from Dec. 1, 2009 through Jan. 18, 2010, with a 6 p.m. Dec. 8 reception. For directions, call the Student Center Information Desk at 713-348-4096.
