Optik Launches ShowCase Tour for Eyewear Enthusiasts

Optik Magazine is pleased to announce its inaugural #OptikEyeStyle Showcase Tour in three cities starting June 4th in Vancouver.  The tour will bring independent eyewear frame collections together with optical buyers, managers and practice owners.  The tour will make stops in Toronto in August and Montreal in September.

Each event starts at 5 PM and runs through the evening, followed by a social hour for mixing and mingling. 

World-class independent eyewear collections will showcase their latest releases and attendees can browse, purchase and network with like-minded eyewear enthusiasts. 

The venues have been selected for their unique vibe and casual atmosphere. Host, Sheena Taff, Optik Fashion/Optical editor said, “It’s important to know what’s on trend for a differentiated dispensary.  The events are a unique opportunity to see the latest in eyewear fashion and network with engaged industry leaders”.   

The full list of collections attending, and venue details are updated on the website:
