As the nominator, Croes provided his nomination statement and 20 examples of Carriere’s work.
The NEA fellowship, considered the country’s highest honor in folk and traditional arts, has awarded 477 fellows, working in over 200 art forms, since 1982. Recipients are nominated by the public and judged by a panel of experts in folk and traditional arts. Panel recommendations are reviewed by the National Council on the Arts before the chair of the NEA makes the final decision.
