Noemí Vázquez Nogueiras's project, which combines music, culture, activism, and community in Vilar de Santos, has been honored with the Pedra Alta Award 2026. The initiative, now over a decade old, has made A Arca da Noe a benchmark for cultural and social activity in the A Limia region.
This ninth edition of the award highlights Vázquez Nogueiras's commitment to promoting culture and creating initiatives that keep rural activity vibrant.
The award ceremony will take place on Saturday, November 28, at 12:00 PM, in the Multipurpose Hall of the Vilar de Santos Town Council. The award itself is a granite replica of the Pedra Alta, a menhir created by sculptor Xosé Lois Carreira.
Following the ceremony, a fellowship lunch will be held at Restaurante Novaiño in Sandiás, requiring prior registration and payment by attendees.
