Rockin’ Rosie

Rockin’ Rosie is The Rose Theater Guild’s annual fundraising event, typically hosted in early spring. Each year, the event rocks a different theme, and attendees let out their inner performer by dressing up and cutting loose. The event includes dinner, dancing, silent and live auctions and fabulous fun.

All funds raised through Rockin’ Rosie support educational programs that our staff lead at our locations as well as onsite in classrooms throughout our community.

Don’t miss our 2025 Rockin’ Rosie event, watch for updates on our social media channels to mark your calendar!
