Denver’s history with the Sister Cities program goes back to the years right after World War II, according to Purnell Steen, unofficial jazz historian in the Five Points neighborhood. Since those hopeful days of re-establishing goodwill between nations, The City of Denver has established Sister City relationships with ten cities on every continent on the planet. Sacha Francois Heppell, executive director of Denver Sister Cities International, and Steen visited The Morning Set with news of upcoming events (at Dazzle on November 7 and November 15) to promote global friendships and cultural exchange.

Find out more details on these events at Denver Sister Cities or Dazzle Denver.
