The Wood County Historical Museum will open a new exhibit in April, “Allure and Illusion: A Rose Colored Romance.”
The exhibit will showcase wedding dresses once worn by local community members.
It also takes a look at the foundation of marriage culture and how modern ideology is changing what it means to get married and strive for the American Dream.
Allure and Illusion will feature the Frank Kalan Harlequin Romance cover art collection from Bowling Green State University’s Browne Popular Culture Library.
The museum will open the exhibit at 4 p.m., Friday, April 8 with a ribbon-cutting ceremony hosted by the Bowling Green Chamber of Commerce.
It will be followed by an open house reception, which is free and open to the public.
The Wood County Museum is at 13660 County Home Road, Bowling Green.
Sponsorships are currently being sought at levels ranging from $150 to $5,000. For more information, call 419-352-0967.
