'Tell Arlington's Story' Community Workshop on Thursday

Residents are invited to find out more about the Tell Arlington's Story project and learn how to tell their own stories.

Arlington County is looking for residents to become part of a larger narrative as part of an effort to build local folklore in the community.

Tell Arlington's Story, a project launched as part of county board Chairman Chris Zimmerman's 2011 priorities, is collecting stories online and in story-swapping workshops throughout the year.

To get residents involved, organizers are hosting a community workshop with Arlington Independent Media to discuss the project and give tips to on how to share stories. The workshop will be held from 7 to 10 p.m. Thursday at Arlington Independent Media's space at 2701-C Wilson Blvd., with the entrance around the corner on Danville Street.
