Wells St. The meet-and-greet style event, hosted by Sister Cities Committee Chair Alderman Russell W. Stamper, II, is organized in recognition of Milwaukee’s many prosperous sister city relationships that span five countries.
“At its core, sister cities are about fostering people-to-people diplomacy. Milwaukee is grateful to have serval strong relationships with cities across the world, and this event next week offers a unique opportunity to engage with Milwaukee’s peers across the globe,” said Alderman Stamper.

The event will also include prospective sister city communities, and feature a variety of cultural entertainment, music, and food.
