(Alpharetta, Ga.) – October 25, 2018 – The 2019 Kitchen and Bath Industry Show (KBIS), the destination for kitchen and bath
design professionals, is pleased to welcome DJ Carey, editorial director of CTC&G magazine, as she guides design

20 from 7:30 am – 5:00 pm. KBIS 2019 takes place February 19 – 21 at the Las
Vegas Convention Center.
“KBIS is an amazing resource for our interior designers,
many of whom have never been to the show before. Seeing the vast array of
appliance, cabinetry, decorative plumbing, surfaces, lighting and more at one
mega-location is so efficient,” said Carey. “I am excited to introduce
designers to new products and inspirational show floor programming at KBIS for
the second year. I know the 2019 event is sure to deliver.”
Carey will hand select a VIP group of interior designers to
accompany her on the KBIS 2019 tour. Brands are invited to apply for the
opportunity to be considered as a tour stop.

interior designers by CTC&G and
value our partnership with this leading design and lifestyle publication,” noted
Brian Pagel, senior vice president Emerald Expositions. “DJ has a keen eye and
