The Puerto Vallarta-Santa Barbara Sister Cities Committee has been a sister city for 51 years, which has fostered a cultural exchange as well as support for artistic, educational, tourism and health events and projects for this municipality.
Within the framework of the announcement of the ephemeral art festival Madonnari 2024, which for the sixteenth time will be filling the heart of Puerto Vallarta with color and talent with beautiful images captured with the technique of chalk pastel on concrete, the president of this committee, Irma Lorena Perez Copado, emphasized that there are already 51 years of tradition and brotherhood with the city of Santa Barbara.
"We have several events and projects and we are known for our altruistic vocation but we are also very interested in the community, young people, art, culture and other educational and social projects."
He said that this relationship is important for them, because it allows exchanges between people-person, as well as culture, traditions, projects and support for the community.
It is worth mentioning that in August 2022, the office of the Puerto Vallarta Sister City Committees was inaugurated, located on the top floor of the Municipal Palace, where members will be able to follow up on the projects and events they bring to the city.
In addition, among the projects completed over the years is the construction of the Vallarta-Santa Barbara Rehabilitation Clinic, a hyperbaric chamber, a library in Las Mojoneras and donations of equipment to the Municipal Police and the Fire Department.
Santa Barbara also donated to Puerto Vallarta the "Fountain of the Dolphins" also known as the "Fountain of Friendship", as well as donating medicine to the Boca de Tomatlan clinic.
