On March 13 (yesterday), at 17h30, there was a ceremony of stone laying in the Emigrant Square, through the Casa do Povo da Ribeira Grande, an event that honored the emigrant woman.
This was a ceremony rich in symbolism, where not only all the emigrant women were celebrated, but also all the young emigrants and young people from the islands.
