30 Years Strong
The Vladimir/Canterbury Sister City Association (VCSCA) was organized in 1986 as an extension of the citizen-to-citizen movement of Sister City International. In 1988 our first citizens’ delegation visited the USSR to select a sister city. Vladimir was proposed, along with a tri-city relationship with Canterbury, England. In 1989, a delegation from Vladimir traveled to Bloomington-Normal to sign the formal agreement.
This year, the VCSCA celebrates 30 years as an exemplar of international cultural exchange and community collaboration. In recognition of this milestone, the VCSCA has big plans for 2019. Including the launch of its new website. Welcome!
Stay tuned for updates on upcoming projects and programs. And if you are interested in being a part of the Association’s next 30 years, we’d love to hear from you!
