Tonus Peregrinus Association takes charge of collecting and promoting the touristic and cultural offer of the village of Nemeshany. Their activities comprise of several fields. Not only do they organise traditionalist-, cultural- or theme-based camps, but they also took part in assembling the offers of the village. Besides, their cultural activity in the region is outstanding.
The association has been a significant community power of the local and regional society. They have arranged countless number of events, programmes, sometimes from their own reources, sometimes cooperating with other civil organizations. Within the frames of a LEADER grant, the association has established a high-standard communal place called Pajtaszínház (Barn Theatre). The building had been renovated in several stages, then technical devices were purchased. Later, it was provided with renewable energy, providing its long-term sustainability. Musical programmes, concerts, exhibitions and traditionalist events are organized here, thus contributing to the local community’s cultural programmes.
