On July 1, the founding day of the Communist Party of China, two Party members from Beijing visited the National Art Museum of China to partake in a special event — serving as models for sculptors to craft bust statues.

This event marked the most recent installment of the museum's public initiative, "Sculpting for Models", where individuals from diverse professions who have excelled in their fields are selected to sit for on-site sculpted portraits.

The honored participants on this occasion were Liu Li, a senior judge at the Beijing Chaoyang District People's Court, and Wang Kerong, a seasoned nurse at Beijing Ditan Hospital.
