Its peaceful democratic elections and good business climate makes it a great destination for investment and business. Taking all these into account, City of Mt.Vernon,”A CITY THAT BELIEVES” is opening its doors for more than three (300) hundred Ghanaian small and medium scale companies to exhibit their wares at Our Arts on Third Street Festival, Westchester’s premiere art and music festival.

                             This will help spur economic and social development for Ghana, the City of Mount Vernon and State of New York.

                        The Media’s participation is highly needed as it would help make the Expo a success and also whip up the desired interest amongst the public.
