He still holds regular art exhibitions around the Philippines, and also occasionally exhibits in New York, Paris, Tokyo, Singapore, Helsinki, and Havana.[1] Teaching careerVillanueva spent 30 years teaching arts at the Ateneo de Manila University in Quezon City, Philippines. In interviews he says this experience convicted him of the importance of the school motto, "Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam" (For the greater Glory of God and A Man for Others). "Every individual has his/her artistic inclinations and propensity be it visual, music, dance, literary, or fashion and so he/she has the right to enhance and utilize it creatively," he is quoted as saying. "Sharing it with others is what makes our life more meaningful and blessed."[1] Retirement to Baguio and Arko ni ApoKeeping these beliefs in mind, Villanueva moved to Baguio City upon retiring from teaching at Ateneo in 1992.[3] He put up an arts workshop, Arko Ni Apo (Ilocano: Ark of the Lord), and he started spearheading various art-related activities catering to a people ranging from professionals, educators, students, young artists, television/film writers and directors, street children, to various religious groups.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{Citation|last=Atienza |first=Gina G. |author-link=Gina G.
