Bramson ORT College is a technical college that is located in the Metropolitan New York area. With campuses in both Brooklyn and Queens, we offer several academic programs for students who wish to excel in a career such as an accountant, medical assistant or paralegal - but those are just a few of the opportunities we offer!

At Bramson ORT College, part of our mission stems from our desire to remain closely knit with the surrounding community. That being said, we encourage all of our students to take advantage of community events and offerings both in and out of an educational setting.

This month, we'd like to offer our students a few ways that they can indulge in New York City culture while celebrating the holidays with family and friends; see below:

1. Rockefeller Center: Christmas in New York City wouldn't be the same without the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree. If you've yet to visit, the tree will be lit until 8:00 PM on January 7, 2015, so be sure to stop by!

2. Bryant Park: Ice skating at your home ice rink is one thing, but ice skating in Bryant Park is another! Admission for this event is free; your only cost is skate rentals, locks and bag checks.

3. Radio City Christmas Show: Would you like to see the rockettes live and up close? Check out the Radio City Christmas Show at Radio Music Hall!

4. The Nutcracker: If you've grown up with the nutcracker as one of your favorite holiday stories, check out the live version at Lincoln Center!

5. FAO Schwarz: A New York City icon, FAO Schwarz is a great place to visit around the holidays; even if it's just to look at the displays!
