Swapping Stories

A lively and well-attended storyswapping workshop, led by master storyteller Judy Klevens, was held at Arlington's Walter Reed Community Center. It was part of the Tell Arlington's Story initiative.

Arlington Mill Community Center/demolition interiors

These photographs were made inside the old Arlington Mill Community Center the night before it was finally demolished.

Photographer Duy Tran first learned photography at the Mill as a member of Paula Endo's Columbia Heights West Teen Photo Program. The home where he grew up, and where his parents still live, is within a half-block of this site.

A new center will begin being constructed in summer 2011.
