Plan a weekend of history, Pittsburgh!  Doors Open Pittsburgh is October 5th and 6th this year, and Pittsburgh Beautiful is super proud to support this fantastic organization!

In 1984, the Doors Open/Open House movement got its start in Europe – like all the cool things do!
To date, there are 40+ European cities that present this event, and eight or so other US cities who also
present this event.

Doors Open Pittsburgh (DOP) was founded in 2016 as a non-profit by Bonnie Baxter, a native
Pittsburgher, who was inspired after attending Open House Chicago while living in Chicago.

Doors Open Pittsburgh is “grass-roots” in the truest sense, with Bonnie serving as the full-time Executive
Director, responsible for all day-to- day activities necessary to make this event happen.
As for staff, there isn’t any, but DOP has been fortunate to have an event-day contingency of amazing
volunteers, and friends along the way to help!

If you see the relevance of our mission, please help to sustain the organization and help keep ticket
prices affordable, by making a comfortable financial contribution to Doors open Pittsburgh (501c3 non-
profit).

Pittsburgh Beautiful will be highlighting 10 of the buildings open this year, subscribe to the blog to receive these highlights and much much more.  You can subscribe right here!
