We’re eternally grateful for our readers–without you there would be no point to BB. But this Thanksgiving we’d also like to give a big shout out to the following businesses, organizations and venues who supported Brooklyn Based this year through advertising, event sponsorship or production. Thanks y’all.
Brooklyn Botanic Garden: The Linnaean Libation League series of parties at BBG were some of the most fun, glamourous parties we helped throw this year.?
Conde Nast/Ford: We were one of a handful of bloggers picked to be part of a social media ad campaign for the new Ford Edge. We’ve taken quite a few road trips with the car, are planning a mobile pop up with it Dec. 4, and have blogged about many talented people in Brooklyn as part of the campaign.
BAM and particularly BAMcinématek has been one of our most frequent advertisers, which is a treat for us because we love their programming. We hope we’ve inspired you to see more of their performances and films.
Brooklyn Brewery sponsored and provided the excellent brews at the Franklin Street Immersion, one of the best bar/shopping crawls ever.
The Bell House: We’ve thrown and sponsored a bunch of great events here this year–Wedding Crashers, the Mad Men Finale Party, the UnFancy Food Show. We love the staff at The Bell House and their kickass venue!
HarperPerennial: It’s been very fun to run dedicateds about HarperPerennial authors like Marcy Dermansky, Sean Ferrell, Ben Greenman, and Tony O’Neill, and to advertise their new blog, The Olive Reader. ?
Columbia Commons, a brand-new building in the Columbia Street Waterfront District, sponsored one of our guides to the area. We took a tour of the building before running a dedicated about it; it’s truly a sweet place to live.
Toren, that sleek, amenity-filled tower in downtown Brooklyn (which is awaiting LEED Gold certification) advertised with us, too.
Lillet sponsored our awesome female foodie cocktail party at Huckleberry Bar. It’s a yummy, classy drink, and makes a pretty gift!
3rd Ward recently advertised their new?membership deal with us. If you need workspace or yearn to learn a new skill, check out their offerings.
Stoli and Glenfiddich: These two brands provided the stiff drinks at our Mad Men viewing party.
Heights Chateau: This impressive wine shop sponsored our wedding fair, Wedding Crashers, with flutes of sparkling wine and provided wine for the PortSide fundraiser on July 4. They have a lot of innovative tastings, not just of wine. Sign up for their list.
Textile Arts Center chose to announce their grand re-opening at their new Gowanus Space through us. They’re now offering studio space for rent, and have a series of holiday gift-making workshops coming up–check them out.
Brooklyn Public Library recently advertised their gala after party with us, proof that their programming goes beyond books.
SkinnySkinny Soaps advertised the opening of their first storefront in Williamsburg in BB. Their deliciously scented soaps are completely organic, and make a perfect gift.
Picada y Vino, a great, local Park Slope wine shop, sponsored a number of Park Slope deals this summer.
These restaurants, cafes, publishers and food artisans all donated gifts to our Foodie Swap raffle, which helped us enormously: Roman’s, Frankies, Roberta’s, Cafe Grumpy, Robicelli’s, The Meat Hook, Brooklyn Grange Farm, Anarchy in a Jar, MilkMade Ice Cream, First Prize Pies and?Stewart, Tabori and Chang. Also, Saranac sponsored the event with their craft beers!
20×200, a new advertiser, offers really affordable, covetable art. (p.s. There’s a new photo series of Prospect Park by Brooklyn-based artist Jospeh Holmes coming out tomorrow–get on their list to get first dibs.)
The Parlour Brooklyn, in Greenpoint, is a cool salon and event space that’s advertising with us next month.
Jennifer Schonborn, a holistic nutritional counselor, has run a number of sponsored tips with us. She offers a free session for BB readers!
Thanks again! And our apologies if we omitted you by accident.
