The American Heart Association will host its annual Houston Go Red For Women Expo & Luncheon on May 10 at the Hilton Americas Hotel from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Keynote speaker is Emmy Award- winning actress Christine Baranski, star of the CBS series The Good Wife.

The big event, chaired by Ilene Allen and Lu Caltagirone, focuses on educating others on the prevention of heart disease and stroke and living a healthy lifestyle, with proceeds going towards the fight against the No.1 killer of women — heart disease.

Prior to the luncheon, luncheon attendees will be invited to participate in several educational breakout sessions, hosted by Merck and Texas Beef Council. A marketplace and expo will be set up for shopping.

A unique silent auction entitled “Purse-onality,” will provide attendees with a chance to bid on designer bags donated by notable Houstonians.

Estée Lauder will be present, giving make-up demos as part of Macy’s. There will also be photo opportunities at the HCA-sponsored “Picture and a Promise” photo booth.

Tickets are $250 each, and tables of 10 range from $2,500 to     $5,000. To purchase yours, please contact Ashly Alberto at 713-610-5000.
