This year, four recipients were named — three individuals and one organization. That organization is the 1/52 Project, founded by Tony-winning designer Beowulf Boritt. The organization calls on designers (and industry professionals) to donate a fraction of their earnings to provide grants to up-and-coming designers. Here, Boritt and former grant recipient Stefania Bulbarella tell us about the 1/52 Project, its mission and this honor. ![audio-thumbnail](https://storage.ghost.io/c/79/db/79db42b7-f4e9-42b6-8d81-14cee7d2a3d1/content/media/2026/06/5min_1_52---6-5-26--12.45---PM_thumb.png) 5 minutes with a Tony honoree: Beowulf Boritt and Stefania Bulbarella 0:00 /536.470839 1× The 2026 Tony Awards will take place on June 7 at Radio City Music Hall.
