You're also invited to attend the first Community Story Swapping Workshop on Saturday, April 2nd, from 10 a.m. until noon. The workshop will take place at the Walter Reed Community Center, 2909 S. 16th Street, Arlington, VA 22204.

Swapping Stories is an innovative, intergenerational, intercultural, oral history project that helps people develop and exchange their stories. Through theatre training techniques, participants walk in another's shoes, developing profound understandings of others' lives and stories.
