Administrative and other programming costs are not included in the festival fee (CBJC absorbs this expense). Promotions begin in late November. Brooklyn Tourism and Visitor's Center, an initiative of Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz, is a major supporter of the Central Brooklyn Jazz Festival.
