Doors OpeN-PRODUCED BY RETHOS

Rethos produces Doors Open Minneapolis and Doors Open Duluth because our cities are worth exploring and sharing. While the cities are different in scale and story, the spirit of Doors Open is the same: to foster curiosity, pride, and connection by offering access to meaningful spaces.

We do this work because preservation is about more than buildings. It’s about helping people feel rooted in the places they live. It’s about making architecture, history, and civic life approachable and exciting. It’s about encouraging people to care for their communities — not just by looking back, but by looking closely, and looking forward.
