Tim Jaeger is Director and Chief Curator of Galleries and Exhibitions at Ringling College. Also an educator and artist, he is drawn to images that tell a story, his work often explores culture, identity and memory through a blend of realism and abstraction. His goal is always to connect people through art and create spaces where diverse voices and stories are seen and celebrated. This philosophy is on full display in the 43 artworks he chose for the Alliance for the Arts’ 40 Annual All Florida Exhibition.
