✨ Eastwood Stories, our most recent community art project, was a wonderful celebration Eastwood's culture, stories and connection to place! Held over two evenings, the activation saw more than 430 community-created artworks transform into a live digital projection. 🎨 Participants coloured, scanned and watched as their creations instantly merged into the artwork in real time. Attracting families, young people and visitors from across the community, Eastwood Stories created a welcoming space to gather, relax and connect alongside the Eastwood Night Markets and local businesses. 👏 A huge thank you to @artthinkingaustralia, local artist Chris Yee @yeetheeast and everyone who contributed their creativity and stories to make Eastwood Stories such a memorable experience. by @cityofryde
