THIS YEAR WE’RE SUPPORTING TOYS FOR TOTS!
PLEASE BRING A NEW TOY TO DONATE

There are just under 90 days until registration for KBIS opens on Sept. 4!

The best, brightest and most successful professionals in the kitchen and bath design and remodeling industry are gathering at the industry’s leading showcase for product, exchanging ideas and career development — the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) — slated for Feb. 19-21, 2019, in Las Vegas.

Each year, the National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA) strives to present an unparalleled show experience, with the latest in design, products and home technologies; informative industry insights, and learning opportunities for professionals to advance their businesses and career trajectory.

Our co-location with the National Association of Home Builders’ International Builders Show makes this the premiere event in North America in which to see what’s hot and what’s next across the entire design, building and remodeling sectors. It’s a great place to network and make valuable business connections.

A journey of discovery awaits kitchen and bath pros throughout the three-day expo. See the newest smart-home technologies, the most advanced appliances, fixtures, cabinetry, surfaces, lighting, storage, design software and new ideas to take the most important spaces in the home into the future. The Voices from the Industry Conference presents 80 classes, all qualifying for CEU credits, taught by experts on topics like design, kitchen and bath specialty training, growing one’s business, marketing and more, while some of the 600-plus KBIS exhibitors conduct training sessions in their booths on the show floor. Two amazing NKBA-hosted parties — the Design Competition and Industry Awards at the Opening Night Party, and The Bash — are all part of the fun.

Best of all: the show is free to attend — if you’re an NKBA member and register between Sept. 4 and 30!

This is just one of many benefits of belonging to the Association. Besides a complimentary KBIS Show Pass, members are eligible for a free early-bird entry into the professional design competition, a free profile page on NKBA.org to promote your business and specialties, the opportunity to obtain NKBA’s highly regarded certifications in kitchen and bath design: Associated Kitchen & Bath Designer (AKBD); Certified Kitchen & Bath Designer (CKBD), and Certified Master Kitchen & Bath Designer (CMKBD). Members stay connected through our insightful blog and newsletter, Innovation + Inspiration magazine, and included membership in one of our 70 local chapters across North America.

Registration opens Tuesday, Sept. 4, with early-bird pricing ($50 for a three-day expo pass) in effect for the month of September. Discounts on VFTI conference passes and show hotels are available, too — check out www.kbis.com to take advantage of a limited number or reduced-rate hotel rooms and other specials.

If you’re not already a member, now is the time to join. We urge you to consider and NKBA membership — the nominal feel pays for itself in complimentary opportunities throughout the year, not to mention valuable promotion of your business. For more information call 1-800-843-6522 or visit https://nkba.org/info/join.

Don’t delay! Join today, and get ready to register for KBIS starting Sept. 4!

Everyone wants to stay informed and the
NKBA Baltimore/Washington Chapter Council is here to help!

We've added a NEW section: Industry Events!

Check this out periodically to see what else is going on in and around the Baltimore/Washington DC Metro Area.  

.....

Are you an NKBA Member (must be in good standing) that has an event coming up?
While we can't share our roster...
as an added benefit we'll post your event here and
on our social media platforms (Facebook and Instagram)

Please reach out to info@nkbabaltowash.org or use our Contact Us Form

The new NKBA.org is a simple, easy-to-use, digital platform built to help members grow their businesses. The system is designed to generate the best possible search results (and generate leads) for each member, but there's a catch … to get the maximum benefits (and the most leads), YOU must complete your profile.

The new NKBA website has been designed to show off your business, produce the best possible search engine results, and help you take your career to the next level. It all starts with your completed profile, so please log-on today.

By completeing your member profile prior to KBIS*, the Baltimore/Washington Chapter will receive $15 for every one of our dues paying members.  The chapter will then, in turn, give that money back to the chapter through programming in 2018.  We have excited things planned for the coming year and hope you'll join us! 

*Update from NKBA National: The deadline is December 30, 2017
