Dallas Market Center and ART, the creative home furnishings network, have announced that the HEARTS Awards event planned for January has been rescheduled for summer 2021.

The HEARTS Awards is a one-time special event in partnership and solidarity with leading industry organizations to honor companies that have shown outstanding leadership, empathy and service during the COVID-19 pandemic by going above and beyond in service to their industry and/or community.

Details

The gala event will take place during the Total Home & Gift Market, June 23-29, 2021. An exact date and location will be announced in the coming months.

“The HEARTS Awards are all about uniting the industry so we have made the decision to shift our event to a time when we can gather together for a live, in-person celebration,” said Sharon Davis, executive director of ART. “At the same time, we can raise funds for hunger relief now so our online auction will continue.”
