The “Radiant” for the Keith Haring collection by .la .

Keith Haring was one of the most renowned of the young artists, filmmakers, and performers whose work responded to urban street culture of the 1980s. He continues to influence artists everywhere, posthumously, proving he is truly timeless… in his art and his personal style.

“Art is for everybody.” -Keith Haring

KACI is now available both online and in the shop, at G!
We’re thrilled to carry this very cool collection… each frame is handmade in France, and inspired by the owner’s own Berber heritage.
This brand is all about story telling, and here at G we love a good family story in a brand.

Come by the shop to meet Kaci yourself!

Hello! Remember this fun artist-collaboration lens cloth project that we launched in October? Well, we’re thrilled to announce that, thanks to all of your support, we were able to make a substantial donation to MAWA !

The money that we raised through selling these lens cloth kits was enough to hire 5 artists to lead 5 more programs through the MAWA organization!
This is incredible news, and just really goes to show that small tokens of support (purchasing a $30 lens cleaning kit), can make a huge impact. We are thrilled to support our city’s arts community in this way.

GOOD NEWS… we still have lots of lens cleaning kits available to purchase, and we will continue to donate all of the proceeds towards MAWA, to make more programming possible. You can purchase lens cloths in the store, or in our online shop (link in bio).

A big thank you for all of your support!

Once you’re in the collector’s realm of the cult favourite eyewear brand, Jacques Marie Mage, you’ll understand the the thrill of shopping our RELICS collection.

A frame style is considered a relic when it is no longer available on the JMM website. This is truly an edit of frames for an eyewear collector, because once these styles are gone; they’re gone.

G is for Glasses is home to some particularly gorgeous artifacts from the history books of JMM— and we’ve recently added a large arsenal of new frames to our website, newly appointed “JMM RELIC” status.

Take a look at these beautiful works of art… Historically, these frames haven’t stayed available for long.

What a week! Love you!
