A painting activity was recently held in Huzhou, East China's Zhejiang province to welcome the upcoming 19th Asian Games.

As a co-host city of the Games, Huzhou will host the women's volleyball events and 3-on-3 basketball competitions.

The activity saw a group of volunteers draw patterns related to the Games, including its emblem and mascots, on canvas bags which were later given to residents for free.

That same day, volunteers also took part in a trash collecting event to do their part in creating a clean environment for the sporting showpiece.
