Kelly and John Hrad, Patron Honoree
Kelly and John Hrad are partners in life, art, and community. Kelly, named Artist of the Year by the ArtCentre of Plano in 2019, calls the ArtCentre her second home—the place that gave her the confidence to grow as an artist and pursue her work full time. John, General Manager of Lamborghini Dallas, has built his career on excellence in leadership and service while championing the couple’s shared passion for giving back.
“The arts are about connection. They remind us that life is layered, complex, and worth pausing for. Supporting the ArtCentre has given us friendships we treasure and allowed us to be part of something bigger than ourselves.”
Together, the Hrads created For the Love of Art & Cars, a signature fundraiser that connects their worlds while supporting programs like JumpStart for the Arts. The event has become a vibrant gathering that brings together artists, collectors, and community members, raising vital funds to ensure children and families have access to transformative arts experiences.
