Doors Open is an Ontario Heritage Trust program that invites communities across the province to open the doors, gates and courtyards of their unique and most fascinating cultural sites so residents and visitors can see inside. The program was launched in 2002 to create access, awareness, appreciation, and excitement about the province’s heritage. It provides unique opportunities to explore and enjoy some of the most interesting places in Ontario’s cities, towns and villages.
Doors Open Barrie is hosted by the Heritage Barrie Committee in partnership with the Ontario Heritage Trust.
