What is Doors Open?
Doors Open is a province-wide event running from April to October where residents and visitors are invited to discover first-hand, the historical, heritage, natural and cultural resources in participating communities across the province. Doors Open is a program of the Ontario Heritage Trust. From historical houses to modern marvels of construction, Doors Open Ontario showcases the buildings, natural spaces, infrastructure and cultural landscapes that shape and define our communities. Due to COVID-19, this year’s Doors Open Burlington looks a little different.
On August 7 and 8, 2021, Museums of Burlington invites you to explore Burlington from the comfort of your home. Behind-the-scenes videos from various sites around Burlington will premiere on doorsopenontario.on.ca.
Want to get out and explore? There will be a QR code available to scan at each site if you go there in person (admission to sites is not included). Pick-up a Doors Open Passport to guide you through the sites virtually or in-person. Passports will available for pick up at Joseph Brant Museum from August 3 to 7 from 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. The passport will contain trivia questions from each site. Answer all the questions and return your passport to a box located outside Joseph Brant Museum by August 13 at 4:30 p.m. for your chance to win a prize!
