Brooklyn Borough Hall and the Brooklyn Academy of Music lit red on Friday, February 6 in in honor of American Heart Month and National Wear Red Day.

The illumination was held in conjunction with the American Heart Association’s “Go Red For Women” campaign, a movement to end the myth that stroke and heart disease only happen to men.

The campaign asks that all women to “Go Red” by wearing red, living a healthy lifestyle and speaking red by spreading the message that heart disease is the gender’s number one killer.
