The Gazebo & Jacaranda Tree Dedications at the Sturges Center for the Fine Arts Commemorating the 25th, 35th, 40th and 50th Anniversaries between the cities of San Bernardino and Tachikawa
In 1984, to honor the 25th anniversary of the partnership between Tachikawa and San Bernardino, the stately gazebo at the Sturges Center for the Fine Arts was presented to the city of San Bernardino by the Tachikawa Sister City Committee. To commemorate subsequent anniversaries, several Jacaranda Trees have been presented to the city and dedicated at the Sturges Center for the Fine Arts located on E Street.
To the left, a big "Thank You" to our Sister City in Japan was displayed on the Sturges Center sign and above guests are shown attending the 25th Anniversary dedication in 1984.
