Milford Moons Signing and Exhibit at Hotel Fauchere June 7
Author Richard Morais will sign his book and exhibit photos.
Author and Milford Readers and Writers Festival Editorial Director Richard C. Morais will be launching his latest book, Milford Moons: A writer’s visual love letter to his ancestral village, with a book signing and fundraising exhibit of related photographs. This special event will take place June 7th between 12 – 2 p.m. at the historic Hotel Fauchère at 401 Broad Street, Milford, Pa. 18337.ch
An award-winning Forbes and Barron’s business-journalist veteran, and the New York Times best selling author of The Hundred-Foot Journey novel that was made into a Hollywood film, Richard is also the fourth generation of his family to live in the village. Milford Moons, a coffee table book filled with over 250 photographs, is a celebration of his nightly ramblings through town with his dogs, visually capturing connections he has with this Eastern Pennsylvanian village.
The book launch’s attending exhibit will showcase throughout the summer 20 hand-picked, limited edition (1/10) photographs from the book in the entry hall of the hotel. A portion from the sales of these framed and signed prints will be donated to the Pike Artworks “Book-Lovers Scholarship” that he is establishing on behalf of the Milford Readers & Writers Festival held this year on September 12th - 14th.
Aware that the festival’s passes are not affordable for some, Richard decided to spearhead a fund to purchase tickets that can be donated to deserving book lovers who would like to attend but otherwise could not. To that end, 25% of the profits from the sale of the framed prints will go to this cause.
The public is invited to the free event to meet the author for this, the first (hot off the press) book-signing and art exhibit in the Hotel Fauchère.
