Brooklyn residents are invited to share their stories to potentially be turned into an innovative digital project.

'Meet Your Stories Brooklyn' includes a series of creative workshops using Deakin Motion Lab technology and working with local artists Geoffrey Ricardo and Heidi Weatherald.

The workshops are open to Brooklyn residents and people with a connection to the area.

The next workshop will be on Saturday 31 August. Participants will learn more about the project's intentions and how to participate, have a chance to meet neighbours, and will learn more about augmented reality and how it can be used publicly.

Participants can take part in any or all the workshops. More dates will be announced.

'Meet Your Stories Brooklyn' is an initiative of Council's Better Places Brooklyn and Altona North program and Creative City Hobsons Bay in partnership with Deakin University

Anyone interested in taking part can register for Meet Your Stories Brooklyn.

Quotes attributable to Mayor of Hobsons Bay, Cr Matt Tyler:

"This is a unique opportunity for residents or past residents of Brooklyn to share what the area means to them, and to be part of a fantastic local community project.

"I can't wait to see the stories that are told about Brooklyn and its people through this project."
