To encourage women and their families in Beijing to actively participate in the Beijing Winter Olympics, Beijing Women's Federation (BWF) launched a public cultural activity. It mobilized women in the capital, including Beijing Smart Ladies (skilled craftswomen), to give out special gifts for Winter Olympics. Among the gifts were works of paper-cut, puppets for shadow play, dolls, kites, painted gourds and other intangible cultural heritage works representing Chinese culture and Beijing’s characteristics. They were sent to the athletes' apartments in the Olympic (Paralympic) Village to show the city's charm and the support of women in the capital to the Games.  

 

On January 4, the 30-day countdown to the Olympic Winter Games Beijing 2022, all of the works made by Beijing Smart Ladies have been delivered to the Beijing Winter Olympic Village (Winter Paralympic Village).
