Fwd: Brooklyn & Boyle Valentine 2014

Greetings/Feliz Año!

Our upcoming Día de Los Enamorados/Día de la Amistad/Valentine's Day issue will include, for the first time ever, a special section devoted to personal notes and dedications. As a special way to remember someone you care for or to simply say "I love you," Brooklyn & Boyle is making a 2-inch, single column-width space available for only $10.

Of course, business owners, agencies and community-based organizations are still also welcome to inquire about display advertising rates for special Valentine's Day promotions, specials and/or events. Our February cover will feature a brilliant new painting by Michael Rascón, whose work conveys all the beauty and power and triumph of the East Side art's community.



With kind appreciation for your continued support.

Gil and I were inspired by the idea civic engagement and often spoke of how we might best serve our emerging community.
