More formally known as the Annual Anthropomorphic Literature and Arts Award, the Ursa Major Award is presented annually for excellence in the furry arts. It is intended as Anthropomorphic (a.k.a. Furry) Fandom's equivalent of the Hugo Award ® presented by the World Science Fiction Society, mystery fandom's Anthony Award, horror fandom's Bram Stoker Award, and so forth. Anyone may nominate and vote for candidates for the Awards. These Awards are decided by the fans, not by a committee.
The results of the voting for the 2022 Ursa Major Awards are here! You can watch the presentation video on YouTube , but if you wish to just read the results, they are below the following article so that there are no accidental spoilers.
For 22 years of the Ursa Major Awards, we in the ALAA have done as best as we can to hold a ceremony that honors and celebrates the best in anthropomorphic art as decided by our fellow members of the furry fandom. We'd like to keep doing this for as long as we can, going into the future, hopefully for the next 22 years. However we have to acknowledge that monetary realities can often make the administration of the awards difficult.
