La Hacienda Venue was born from fifteen years of a dream and the courage to build something entirely new It started simply: Hector Rojas acquired a piece of land on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, built one cabin, and began working with his first horse. From there grew something no one had seen in Mississippi before, the first Lienzo Charro in the state, a traditional Mexican-style arena where bull riding and the art of coleadería brought hundreds of families for celebration, competition, and community. When that chapter closed in May 2024, Hector didn’t walk away from the land. He transformed it. In two years of construction and creative vision, the arena’s semi-circular grandstand became El Ruedo Pavilion, an elegant open-air banquet hall. The old horse stalls became La Casona, a beautiful five-bedroom guest house, and the El Palomar bridal suite above. El Quiosco del Amor was designed with inspiration from the ornate kiosks found in old Mexican town squares and haciendas.

The NOCCA Foundation is the nonprofit that supports the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts, which is Louisiana's arts conservatory for high school students. Our venues are located in one of New Orleans' oldest neighborhoods, the Faubourg Marigny, just upriver from the Bywater. Our buildings date from the early 1800s and have been beautifully restored with modern amenities. Funds from rentals help support a range of programs for students, faculty, and the community, including an Artists-in-Residence program that brings up to 100 visiting artists into NOCCA's classrooms each year; professional development funds for NOCCA faculty; and a series of concerts, gallery exhibitions, readings, and classes for the community.
