Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not meet the minimum threshold of three evidentiary criteria. While the Director initially found that three criteria were met, the AAO disagreed, concluding that the petitioner's work was displayed at commercial events, not artistic exhibitions or showcases. Ultimately, the AAO found the petitioner only satisfied two criteria (published material and judging), thus failing the initial evidence requirement.
