The IRC Historical Society Joins Eventbrite
With so many events planned for the 2018-2019 season, we have joined with Eventbrite to help us with promotion, social sharing, and ticket sales. Many of our events are free to the public, but we ask if you could please register on Eventbrite.com your intention to attend, it will help us better prepare for the number of guests coming.
Several of our events are intended as fund-raisers for the society. When tickets are required, they should be purchased from the Eventbrite.com site. They will lead you through the easy steps of payment where you print out your own tickets, eliminating the need to drive to another location for pick up. We will have a list of paid guests at the event in case of printing problems.
When you go on the Eventbrite site, simply type in the city and date of the event and our information will appear or click "browse events", type in Indian River County Historical Society in the search area, and press "enter."
Thank you so much for your support as we try to make this technology age useful for us all!
