Planning a Historic International Summit

Planning a huge event in another country is both exciting and terrifying at the same time. Our historic U.S.-Japan Sister Cities International Summit was incredible, held last week in IZUMISANO CITY, Osaka, Japan. A gigantic "arigato" to the 561 people who gathered from 15 countries.

From a live tuna carving demo, to emotional stories of friendship, to an incredible fireworks welcome, here are snapshots from Day #1.

Special thanks to our presenting sponsor, the U.S.-Japan Foundation.
