In Virginia, it’s pretty easy to tell: we love LOVE. From the renowned Virginia is for Lovers slogan to the 200+ LOVEworks signs all around the state, LOVE can be found in every corner of Virginia -   AND Floyd County is FULL of Love and LOVEworks signs.  

Visitors are encouraged to take photos with the LOVEworks and share with loved ones on Facebook at www.Facebook.com/VirginiaisforLovers and www.facebook.com/VisitFloydVA.  A complete list of the VA LOVEwork locations is at www.virginia.org/love/
