Title
English: Chinese arch at the Go-Hing carnival, May 1921
Description
English:

In late May 1921, Seattle's Chinese community held a carnival, called Go-Hing, to raise money for famine relief in China. The streets of Chinatown were decorated, and all of Seattle was invited to a week of Chinese music, dance, and food. This photo shows the arch on King Street in Seattle at the entrance to the Go-Hing festival. It was designed by University of Washington student Fook Tai Lau. The event raised money for famine relief in China.

See Seattle Post-Intelligencer, May 21, 1921, page 19.
