Welcome and Youkoso!

ようこそ！

  Welcome to the Superior Sister City Commission Website.  We’d like to introduce our organization, share information about our activities, a little bit about the history of our Sister City relationship, and the culture of Ami-machi, Japan.  We hope you will visit often to find out about our latest efforts, and we hope you will be inspired to get involved. See our calendar on the left, and feel free to make a donation to help support intercultural exchange and awareness!

Our Mission

• To promote peace through mutual respect, understanding, and cooperation — one individual, one community at a time.

• To share the culture of our Sister City with the people of Superior, Wisconsin and the surrounding area.

• To promote exchanges of people and ideas between our two communities.

     In support of this mission, the Mayors of Superior and Ami-machi renewed our Protocol Agreement in November 2020.

     The COVID-19 pandemic forced the cancellation of the delegation visits between Superior and Ami-machi from 2020 - 2023, but we look forward to visiting Ami-machi again in the summer of 2024.
