Since its 1999 inception, the Millennial Territory Orchestra (MTO) has endured as both a dedicated community of players and an expressive vehicle for its leader: Grammy-nominated trumpeter, slide trumpeter, composer and arranger (and founder of the acclaimed Sexmob) Steven Bernstein.

NoMad Jazz Festival: The inaugural NoMad Jazz Festival is an only-in-NoMad community event and a milestone. Celebrating The Jazz Gallery’s 30th anniversary and the neighborhood’s storied musical history – from NoMad’s Tin Pan Alley to the birth of the Great American Songbook – the festival honors the district’s past while spotlighting its future. NoMad has long been a home for groundbreaking artists. Now, we’re bringing jazz back to its roots and giving the next generation of talent a platform to shine.
Rizzoli Bookstore: Established in New York in 1964, Rizzoli Bookstore moved in 1985 to its historic 57th Street location, where it resided for 29 years before relocating in 2015 to its current NoMad location on Broadway. It has been widely considered one of the foremost independent booksellers in America specializing in illustrated books on architecture, interior design, fashion, photography, cookery, and the fine and applied arts, as well as literature, foreign language books and international magazines. Rizzoli Bookstore has been, and will continue to be, a literary landmark in New York City, and a celebrated destination for important authors and book lovers from all over the world.

Field Blend Selections: Founded in January, 2017, Field Blend Selections is a new wine importing and distribution company based in New York City, serving the New York and New Jersey markets.
In both name and practice, Field Blend Selections celebrates agricultural traditions and diversity. The name is an homage to the nineteenth-century immigrants who co-planted an assortment of grape varieties in vineyards throughout the United States, many of which survive today. Alongside their vines, they often co-planted other crops, including fruits, grains, and legumes. This approach of co-mingling various plantings to achieve balance in the vineyards is now referred to as polyculture, and it is widely recognized as one of the best methods for naturally enriching soils and reducing disease. Polyculture, by replicating nature’s diverse ecosystems, produces healthier fruit without the necessity of artificial herbicides or pesticides.
