We are thrilled to announce that the Agora des Arts has won the public vote at the Archello Awards in the "Theater Building of the Year" category. This recognition celebrates the exceptional architectural and cultural significance of the Agora des Arts, a groundbreaking project that redefines the boundaries of performance spaces and community engagement.
The Archello Awards showcase the most innovative and outstanding architectural projects worldwide. This award honors the uniqueness of the Agora des Arts, a venue that seamlessly combines state-of-the-art theater facilities with open and inclusive spaces dedicated to cultural exchange. Its flexible, and sustainable design is integrated harmoniously into its surroundings and positions the Agora des Arts as an iconic landmark in the cultural and architectural landscape of Rouyn-Noranda.
The Agora des Arts stands in the Abitibi-Témiscamingue region as a specialized venue for creative theater and acoustic music. The project is the result of the transformation of the historic Notre-Dame-de-Protection Church, recognized as part of Quebec's cultural heritage. Having served as a gathering place for nearly a century, the Agora des Arts continues this tradition of uniting people to celebrate what brings us together. This venue will remain an inspiring symbol of architectural innovation and cultural enrichment for generations to come.
Chevalier Morales is honored to receive this award, which reflects the dedication and outstanding collaborative efforts of all those involved in bringing the project to life. We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who supported the Agora des Arts with their vote. This recognition highlights the project's exceptional quality and its deep appreciation within both the artistic community and the people of Rouyn-Noranda. It also encourages our team to continue creating spaces that nurture cultural exchange and foster the growth of creative expression.
