Chicago-based eyewear chain, Spex is hosting their next Art+Vision event with assemblage and collage (shown here) by Maddie Madding. The opening reception happens on September 28 at the new Spex location at 2146 N. Halsted, (just up the street from the previous location) which lends itself well to showcasing the unique eyewear lines for which Spex is known. Manager Debbi Yambrick says, "We'll have the same great eyewear lines, same terrific staff, same expert eye doctors – it's just a new environment for our great Spex vibe".
