Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that they met at least three of the required evidentiary criteria. While the Director found the petitioner met the criteria for judging the work of others and display of work at artistic showcases, the AAO concluded the evidence was insufficient to meet the criteria for membership in associations or published materials in major media. As the petitioner only satisfied two of the ten criteria, the petition was ultimately denied.
