September is an important month for NKBA as the association accepts nominations for its Hall of Fame as well as self-nominations for National Volunteer Committees. Both of these rewarding opportunities close on Sept. 29th at 5 pm ET, so be sure to review the below about each respective opportunity!
NKBA Kitchen & Bath Hall of Fame
Since NKBA introduced the Kitchen & Bath Industry Hall of Fame in 1989, the association has honored over 90 outstanding individuals, recognizing their impact on and contributions to the growth and integrity of the K&B industry. Nominations are currently being accepted for the potential next inductee…but not for long! Nominations will be closing soon, on Sept. 29 at 5 pm ET.
After nominations have been submitted, nominees are reviewed by a standing program committee from the member-nominated list for final approval by the NKBA Board of Directors. And then, if a final inductee is selected, they will be recognized for their important involvement in the industry during the induction ceremony at KBIS 2024 in Las Vegas that takes place during the Kitchen & Bath Design + Industry Awards, sponsored by Miele, 2020, Ferguson and Perlick. When inducted, they will be joining the ranks of past K&B Hall of Fame inductees — like 2023’s inductee, Steve Feldman, Founder and CEO, Renovation Angel, who was presented with the honor by Suzie Williford, NKBA’s EVP and Chief Strategy Officer, who called him a “visionary who has changed the dynamic of the business, all while helping to protect the environment.”
If you know someone who has contributed to the industry in a revolutionary way, please nominate them by Sept. 29 at 5 pm ET. To review the NKBA K&B Hall of Fame Nomination Guidelines and submit a candidate for this prestigious award, please go here.
