Chattanooga’s newest Sister City is Accra, Ghana - its first on the continent of Africa.
The Sister Cities program fosters commercial and cultural ties between communities around the world.
Kanika Jones saw the opportunity for a Sister City relationship between Chattanooga and Accra, in West Africa - and her first steps helped facilitate what is now official.
She is also the lead artist and creative director of The Urban Echo Project, now hosting a Youth Poetry Workshop at the downtown Chattanooga Public Library - with sessions on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 4 PM through June 7th.
