About this Event
Get all three books signed in person, access event-only bundles and deals, and register on-site for the Young Entrepreneur Camp. Hosted at Bovanti Cosmetics and Spa in Bowie Town Center.
Bowie, we’re making history on purpose.
On Sunday, December 21st from 2:00–4:00 PM, best-selling and award-winning author and entrepreneur Carl J. Gray III is hosting his first-ever book launch and signing experience, and you’re invited to be in the room.
This is not a “pull up, sign a book, and leave” kind of day. This is celebration, community, and opportunity in one place.
What’s happening at the event
You’ll be able to:
- Get all three of Carl’s books signed in person
- Grab event-only book bundles and specials
- Register on-site for the Raising Founders Young Entrepreneur Camp
- Access coaching program deals and giveaways available only at the event
Why Bovanti
Carl could’ve done his first signing at Barnes & Noble across the street. Easy play. But he chose Bovanti on purpose.
Bovanti Cosmetics and Spa is Maryland’s first Black-owned cosmetic store and spa, and the first Black-owned cosmetic store in the state period. The owners are also fellow Hamptonians.
So this launch is rooted in something bigger: supporting small business, building community, and celebrating legacy the right way.
Who should come
- Entrepreneurs and business builders
- Parents raising young founders
- Teens with business ideas or active hustles
- Supporters who believe in community economics
- Anyone who wants to celebrate a real milestone in real time
