TEEN ARTIST PARTNERS WITH COHEN’S FASHION OPTICAL FOR A GOOD CAUSE

WESTPORT, CT – October 16, 2019 –Artwork of a young Westport resident, Jane Krauss, will be featured on lens cloths at select Cohen’s Fashion Optical stores in support of the Mount Sinai Adolescent Health Center.

Last spring, a Cohen’s Fashion Optical executive spotted a bag featuring Jane’s art at Vision Expo in New York City. They learned the artist was a teen that sells her art exclusively to raise funds for children’s charities. The Cohen’s Fashion Optical team decided to do a unique tie-in with Jane in support of the Mount Sinai Adolescent Health Center during the busy back-to-school time.

Lens cloths, featuring Jane’s art, will be included with a purchase of frames at the Cohen’s Fashion Optical store in Westport beginning October 16th - November 16th (while supplies last) or can be purchased for $5 (limited to two per person) with the funds going directly to the Mount Sinai Adolescent Health Center. Cash or check for the lens cloth if that is bought exclusively. Cohen’s Fashion Optical made a generous contribution to the Mount Sinai Adolescent Health Center in support of the program.

Dr. Lenore Cohen, a member of the Cohen’s family, and the director of the optical department at the Mount Sinai Adolescent Center says, “We are so excited to present Jane’s beautiful lens cloths in support of a wonderful cause. She is an extraordinary young woman.”

Jane Krauss, a 15 year old junior at Staples High School says, “I’m extremely honored to have my art showcased, in this creative way, with one of the top eyewear retailers in the country. It’s exciting that there is a Cohen’s Fashion Optical in my hometown, so the promotion can take place here. I recently started wearing glasses (in class), and know how key it is to have a great lens cloth. This is a really fun tie-in.”
