2019 Fitness Day & Health Fair was held on Sunday, November 17 at the Rosemead Center. Thousands of people took part in this annual community health-themed event.

West California Academy of Art and Design provided voluntary Environmental Art Creation for parents and children in Room 3 of the Rosemead Center. 

According to Wang Lei, the principal of the Academy, the goal of this activity is to spark ideas for parents and children who want to learn about the importance of reusing and recycling resources for environmental sustainability.   The recyclable items can be easily found in the home, such as toilet paper roll, milk and juice cartons, plastic containers, jars and cereal boxes. 

The children learned how to make bookmarks with their own artworks.

Each child also received free gift of one set of markers sponsored by BIANYO.
