Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the required number of evidentiary criteria. The AAO found that a mayoral certificate was for local community contribution, not national excellence, and another award was received after the petition's filing date. The AAO also concluded that the petitioner's work as a producer was not the 'work' being displayed at concerts; rather, the performers' work was on display.
