While vacationing with family in France, Beverly Hills Vice Mayor Sharona Nazarian took it upon herself to meet with the Vice Mayor of Cannes and discuss how the two cities can revive their longstanding sister city relationship.
Cannes became a sister city with Beverly Hills in 1986, but programming between the two cities has stalled in recent years. The idea for renewing relations was sparked at Beverly Hills’ recent Bastille Day celebration and staff from the French Consulate subsequently put Nazarian in touch with Cannes Vice Mayor Thomas de Pariente.
