Born in present-day Ji'nan of Shandong province, Li excelled at poetry, ink painting and calligraphy. She and her husband, Zhao Mingcheng, shared an interest in collecting bronze ware and headstones carved with prose and poems. Zhao was also a renowned poet at the time.

Through a series of featured activities including display panels, calligraphy and painting exhibition, culture lectures, Peking Opera performances and creative product display, the event charted Li's extraordinary life and her achievements in literature.
