Event Highlight-UTFA Arts Education Workshop & Resources
Our 2nd Fall 2024 event was a success. This event was an opportunity to hear from campus and College of Fine Arts partners about student resources like CARE counseling, financial wellness, the Center for Creative Economies and Texas Performing Arts events, jobs, and student programs. Students could hear from presenters about dealing with stressors and incorporating self-care, the basics of making a budget work, and the multifaceted opportunities that Texas Performing Arts and the Center for Creative Economies have available to them. We continue to see the value in educating students on the available resources on campus and how they can have a more well-rounded higher education experience by using these multiple resources.
Presenters:
COFA Care Counselor
Niki Luibrand, LCSW
Texas Performing Arts
Eric Vera, Education Program Manager

Event Highlight-UTeach Theatre Alum Celebration & World Premiere of Lyric and the Keys
On Saturday, September 28, 2024, over 45 UTeach Theatre students, alums, staff, and faculty gathered at the Magik Theatre in San Antonio, TX, for the World Premiere of Lyric and the Keys, a musical with Book by UTeach Fine Arts Associate Dean, Roxanne Schroeder-Arce and Music and Lyrics by DTYC Alum, Jenn Hartmann Luck. For many, this was a reunion for past and present UTeach Theatre students, and they had the opportunity to catch up and share about their careers as teachers. One alum in attendance, Carrington Quezada, UTeach Theatre 2020, said of the experience, “Getting to see friends and support the UTeach program was wonderful and made me proud to be a part of the program’s history.”
