United States Artists (USA) Fellowship announces its 2022 Fellowship Cohort

Across ten disciplines ranging from architecture and design (A&D) to craft, media, and film, 63 artists were inducted into this year's United States Artists (USA) Fellowship cohort. The USA Fellowships celebrates "the creative disruptors, social sculptors, and material vanguards who ignite our imagination beyond limits." This year's selected cohort is no exception.

Each design practice has produced notable works and made important contributions to the architecture and design community. From academia to the arts, civic engagement, and professional practice, this year's selected winners represent the future of industry changemakers. 

USA shares, "after another year of challenges brought on by the pandemic, artists continue uplifting those around them and investing in their communities. The 2022 USA Fellows were selected for their remarkable artistic vision and their commitment to community – both within their specific regions and discipline at large."
