Hugo House, 1634 11th Ave, Seattle, WA 98122


Join us for a special event with French eyewear brand Anne & Valentin in partnership with local nonprofit literary arts organization Hugo House!

Through the Lens of Anne & Valentin will explore the key inspirations of A&V's eyewear design, including literature, visual art, and architecture.

Discover some of the brand muses behind the frames such as French novelist and polymath, Boris Vian, whose work will be featured through bilingual readings of extracts from his writings. The presentation will also cover the breadth of other influences on the frames including Ukrainian-born artist Sonia Delaunay, French artist Camille Walala, and the architecture of the Centre Pompidou.

Stay after the presentation for a short reception where you can try on lenses and ask questions about the inspirations.
