About Tacoma Sister Cities

TSC is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting Tacoma globally and enriching our community through international education, exchange and economic development, and promoting peace through people.

Sister Cities International, our parent organization, was created by President Dwight Eisenhower in 1956, giving national focus to affiliations between cities in the United States with cities in other countries. Our Japanese Sister City relationship began in 1959. Sister Cities creates citizen diplomacy, deeper cultural understanding, international visitation and hospitality that lead to long lasting relationships and economic prosperity. The City of Tacoma has 13 Sister Cities. It also has three Friendship Cities. Tacoma’s Sister City and Friendship activities are as diverse as its membership. Some examples of activities include Student Exchanges, Sports Exchanges, Maritime Education, Tourism, University Research, Performing Arts Festivals, Artist Exchanges and the International Film Festival. Each Sister City has a citizen- based Sister City Committee. The Sister City Committees are all organized under a 501 c (3) called the Sister City Council of Tacoma.
