The New England Institute of Art is hosting a new exhibit, underwritten by Boston-based ad agency Mullen, to showcase the Ad Council’s rich history of public service advertising. The exhibit, featuring a series of print, outdoor and television ads, will run from May 13 through June 30, 2008 at the Gallery on the Plaza in Brookline, Massachusetts.

Men are 25 percent less likely than women to have visited the doctor within the past year, yet they are 1.5 times more likely than women to die from heart disease and cancer. HHS' Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) and the Ad Council have launched a new campaign to educate men on the importance of preventive health care.
