The exhibition honors the mayor of Cortona, Emanuele Rachini, making his first trip to Athens, Cortona’s “Sister City.” The sister-city relationship dates back to 1978, growing broadly out of UGA’s studies-abroad program in Cortona, established in 1969. In celebration of this long friendship, the art education department of the School of Art and local artist Susan Colangelo have organized a juried competition for the design of a ceremonial flag for Athens; 158 students from Athens-Clarke, Oconee, Jackson, Oglethorpe, and Madison counties are participating.
