In the afternoon of October 18, 2022, the ceremony for awarding the prizes for the 6th "Shanghai Get-Together" Writing Contest and celebrating the 20th anniversary of the "Window of Shanghai" was held in the Shanghai Library East.
The "Shanghai Get-Together" Writing Contest was jointly sponsored by the Shanghai People's Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries, the Shanghai Municipal Bureau of Culture and Tourism and the Shanghai Library, and organized by the Shanghai Daily. Due to the epidemic, it took more than one year for the "Shanghai Get-Together" Writing Contest to solicit essays, but the organizers collected more and better works. The jury finally selected 1 first prize, 2 second prizes, 3 third prizes and 11 fourth prizes from the 283 works collected from 33 countries.
