📚✨ HAMPTONIANS, LET’S TALK BOOKS! 💙⚓️

Get ready, RVA! We're excited to roll out the welcome mat for our very own Hampton University alumna and award-winning author, G. Dee Bowman!

Through her powerful writing, Dee pays a heartfelt tribute to her beloved father, Ollie Bowman, Hampton University's former Dean of Admissions and Registrar, in "Dignity in the Dark".

Her thought-provoking work, "Beyond the Mask", challenges us to look within, confront the masks we wear, and find the courage to unveil our authentic selves.

Her stories are more than words on pages. They are powerful testimonies of love, legacy, truth, and self-discovery that will move your heart, stir your soul, and leave a lasting impression.

❤️ Let's welcome our fellow Hamptonian, Dee Bowman, to RVA with open arms and plenty of Hampton love!

📅 Friday, November 6, 2026
⏰ 5:00–7:00 PM
📍 Trevor's Grill and Tavern

Come out, show your support, celebrate a fellow Hamptonian, and enjoy an evening of meaningful conversation!
