In October 2013, BRIC opened its new multi-disciplinary arts and media complex, BRIC Arts | Media House. The $33 million project is now a 40,000-square-foot destination and anchor for the arts in Downtown Brooklyn. The renovation of the historic 1919 Strand Theater and creation of BRIC House was designed by the Brooklyn-based architect Thomas Leeser. BRIC House is a true home for artists and audiences—a place where emerging and established artists can create work that deepens their practice and engages the diverse communities of Brooklyn. It includes new, state-of-the-art facilities for BRIC’s contemporary art, performing arts, and community media programs.
