About this Event

Overview

Join us for the Qing Ming Festival at Range 99, a memorial dedicated to the unnamed Chinese Americans who were burried there from 1896-1936. While the bodies were sent back to their families in China some time ago, Range 99 represents the legacy of Chinese Americans in Washington DC. The space is also used to honor community members who have since passed. We will take part in grave sweeping, weeding, and de-cluttering the surrounding area of the memorial.


Meeting Location

Please meet us at the cemetery gates on E St. We will start to congregate around 10:30 AM and head to Range 99 at 10:45.
