Thank you so much for your interest - Registration for the 2021 event is now closed
We are so grateful to everyone who has taken the time to register as an artist for this event. Registration for Open a Door 2021 is now closed to allow artists enough time to complete their work in preparation for the auction. You can view a preview of the work in progress here.
A door represents transition as we move through our lives, opening up new possibilities and opportunities along the way. For local families in need of an affordable home where they live and work, Habitat can be the key to a new beginning.
This Spring, Habitat for Humanity Victoria and Presenting Sponsor Pemberton Holmes are inviting members of the community, such as artists, designers and other individuals to create their own unique vision of a future full of possibilities. As we all look forward to reconnecting with our friends, family and each other, we want these pieces to demonstrate your hopes and dreams, expressed through your unique style and talent.
Your canvas is a door, chosen from the ReStore, registered participants may choose from doors in our inventory of a value up to $100. This door could be for a kitchen cabinet, outhouse, front door, or any other type, material or size – it’s all up to you! Once you have chosen your door and created your masterpiece, it will be showcased across the region online through our media partners and in our stores, ultimately culminating in an online auction with proceeds in support of Habitat’s work right here in your community.
This is a unique opportunity to create something beautiful, functional and inspirational that has a lasting impact in the region.
