Join the Somerville Arts Council, CASPAR Inc. and the Somerville Chamber of Commerce for a special event book signing and Q&A session featuring nationally acclaimed local photographer, Bill Brett, in honor of his latest book, Boston Inspirational Women. Brett’s latest achievement is a father-daughter collaboration with Kerry Brett, who compiled more than 125 black-and-white portraits of women with Boston ties for the book.  With words by Carol Beggy and a foreword by Karen Kaplan, the book documents women who are influential and inspirational in their city and beyond.  The book signing will be held on Wednesday, February 8, 5 p.m. -7 p.m. at Foundry on Elm in Davis Square.

All proceeds from book sales will go to CASPAR Inc.’s “New Day Program,” which offers residential treatment programs for pregnant and parenting mothers with substance abuse issues, and their newborns.
