Another highlight at this year’s Vision Expo was the awards ceremony and reception celebrating 20/20 Magazine’s 40th anniversary. On Sept. 19, the Accessories Council, the leading not-for-profit organization dedicated to nurturing accessory design in America, honored 20/20 Magazine with its annual Hall of Fame Award at Tao in The Venetian. Accepting the award were James Spina, VP, editor-in-chief of 20/20, and Marc Ferrara, publisher/CEO of the Information Services division of Jobson Medical Information.

This Hall of Fame event was funded with Gold Level sponsorships from Luxottica, Marchon, Safilo and The Vision Council. Nationwide Vision was a Silver Sponsor. In honor of this special tribute, the Accessories Council will donate 50 percent of the net proceeds of this event to The Rick Bay Foundation.
