    PROGRAM DETAILS
    Post events quickly and easily.
    Once you've registered it’s easy to post events. Just log on to our easy-to-use database interface from your computer and submit your event online at least three weeks in advance of the date of your event. Once your event has been reviewed they will be posted live to our online bulletin board and the BCAT Brooklyn Bulletin Board . It’s as simple as that!

    Improve your organization's visibility.
    List your events on the BRIC website, which receives an average of 3,000 unique visitors per week, and on BCAT, which is cablecast to over 430,000 homes in Brooklyn.

    Drive traffic to your website.
    Even if you already have a website and a full-time online development department, BRIC can still help you reach your goals. Thousands of users from New York and beyond visit our website for the latest information on cultural and community events from around the borough. Add a link to your website in your event posting and increase your site's traffic.

    Take part in online marketing campaigns and on-air messaging.
    Visitors to briconline.org opt-in to receive e-mail updates based on their areas of interest. Your organization’s event information is received by audiences that have already specified an interest in what you have to say. This type of permission marketing has emerged in recent years as an exceptional way to reach the audience you want in a world that is bombarded with information.
