NYCitySlab, Martha Stewart American Made 2016 Honoree

Such an exciting time for NYCitySlab...

We were named a Martha Stewart American Made 2016 Honoree. American Made honors and highlights up and coming entrepreneurs who have demonstrated innovation, determination and creativity in the fields of agriculture, manufacturing, design and style.

NYCS was one of ten "Makers" honored at Martha Stewart's annual American Made Summit held at her headquarters in NYC on October 21-22, 2016. We were so happy to be included with such a talented group of small business entrepreneurs who are committed to their vision of heading socially responsible companies.

It all started on a Friday evening with a wonderful cocktail reception for all the honorees and guests on the 102nd floor of One World Observatory.
