Mrs. De La Rosa was instrumental in the formation of Teatro De Artes De Juan Seguin non-profit cultural arts organization which is a revered cultural, educational, and humanities institution in Seguin, Texas. Teatro recently celebrated its 40th anniversary of serving Seguin and surrounding communities’ youth, adolescents, adults, and seniors through its three pillars of: Community Based, Center Based, and School Based programming. For all 40+ years Vickie volunteered her services and expertise to Teatro in the following capacities: first costume coordinator, first Ballet Folklorico De La Rosa instructor, first program coordinator, first grant writer/administrator, first executive director, and dedicated 41 years to serving all who sought knowledge in learning more about the Mexican American culture through all forms of art and humanities. She brought many artists, many programs, many cultural experiences to the community of Seguin and beyond, this also includes private and public schools, and universities. She cultivated the love of teaching in youth who now serve and served in many capacities within Teatro De Artes De Juan Seguin throughout the United States and abroad. She was also very instrumental in starting the “Grow Your Own” project within Teatro which has developed fierce Mexican American arts administrators. She served on many Boards of Directors for various organizations and was often asked by Texas Commission on the Arts to serve as Advisory Review Panelist. She was revered in the arts community throughout Texas and nationally and remained dedicated to the mission of Teatro: To promote a better understanding of the Mexican American culture through the teaching, study, practice, and performance of the arts.

Vickie was a champion for arts, was an amazing educator and school administrator, and was an advocate for all humanity.

OUR STORY

Teatro was the brain child of three visionaries who wanted to make sure that the children of Seguin and surrounding areas had a place where they could express their love of culture. Along with the three visionaries also came numerous people from the community who helped pave the way for Teatro.
