JUDGE:
Timothy O’Connor is the dedicated Executive Director of the duCret Center of Art in Plainfield, NJ; duCret is the oldest art school in New Jersey, founded in 1926. While Tim’s professional background lies in accounting, his heart beats for the vibrant world of creativity and artistic expression.
Assuming the mantle of Executive Director in August 2020, Tim embarked on a mission to steer duCret through the turbulent waters of COVID, determined to safeguard its legacy and ensure its endurance for another 98 years. With a keen understanding of the importance of regional art centers like duCret, Tim envisions a future where these institutions thrive as pillars of artistic innovation and community enrichment.
In pursuing this vision, Tim advocates for collaboration among art centers, believing they can forge a robust and supportive artists’ community by joining forces. Outside of his professional endeavors, Tim resides in Plainfield, NJ, with his two dogs, Benjamin and Algebra.
