This image displays a section of a public exhibition board featuring text and two embedded photographs, with a third large photograph or backdrop partially visible at the bottom. The text, titled "Wishing Bells for Charity (1996)", indicates the event's purpose: individuals tossed coins at hanging bells to make wishes, with proceeds benefiting Ren Ci Hospital, an organization providing affordable medical care. The event was reproduced with permission from the Singapore Federation of Chinese Clan Associations, confirming the location as Singapore. The top embedded photograph, set at night or in a dimly lit environment, shows a decorative waterfall display. This display features a multi-tiered, faux rock structure with a blue waterfall effect, adorned with several orange and yellow koi fish sculptures or cutouts. A red, traditional Chinese-style archway (likely a paifang) with additional koi fish sits atop the structure. Several people are observing this display: a woman in a white t-shirt and dark pants with a dark bag stands on the left, a man in a dark green shirt and pants stands with his back to the viewer, and another person in a white top and blue pants also faces the display. Further to the right, a small group of individuals is gathered, with one man in a light-colored top and shorts wearing red shoes. A white banner with Chinese characters and "METTA WELFARE ASSOCIATION" is visible in the background, suggesting a charitable organization's presence. The lower, larger photograph or backdrop depicts a vibrant, multi-storied traditional Singaporean shophouse facade. The building features yellow walls with blue trim, red decorative elements, and multiple arched windows with louvred shutters. Below this facade, numerous hanging bells are visible, corresponding to the "Wishing Bells" theme. A crowd of people is gathered in the foreground, indicating a public event or celebration. A vertical sign, partially visible on the right, includes Chinese characters and the English text "Wishing Fountain".
