Concrete Stories, the third annual Brooklyn Youth Media Festival, will showcase films, documentaries and animations produced by Brooklyn’s talented young media makers under age 20. It will take place on Wednesday, May 25, 2016. It's mission is to give young people a platform to showcase their stories, which often go overlooked. Read about the films selected to be screeened at the Festival!

BRIC’s Visual Artist Residency program gives a few select artists free studio space in BRIC House and at Saint Ann’s School in Brooklyn Heights, for an eight-week period during the summer. The experience gives artists the time and space to create, while providing them with exposure to the BRIC community. BRIC is proud to announce the four artists who have been selected as recipients of the 2016 BRIC Visual Artist Residency: Aisha Tandiwe Bell, Ilana Harris-Babou, Tahir Carl Karmali, and Jakob Kudsk Steensen.

On June 25, 2013, Texas State Senator Wendy Davis stood for 11 hours in pink sneakers, filibustering against a restrictive abortion bill and creating history. Bronx artist Alicia Grullón will recreate this piece of history in its entirety (in an identical pair of pink Mizuno shoes) from 10am until 9pm on Wednesday, April 13, 2016 at BRIC House.

We hope you had a chance to see the OPEN (C)ALL: Up for Debate exhibition, which was on view at BRIC House Feb 5-28, 2016.
