Doors Open Milwaukee September 20 and 21

MARK YOUR CALENDARS now for Doors Open Milwaukee which will run September 20 and September 21.

DOORS OPEN MILWAUKEE is Historic Milwaukee’s most ambitious project. As a nonprofit organization, Historic Milwaukee, Inc. has been dedicated to increasing awareness of and commitment to Milwaukee’s history, architecture, and the preservation of our built environment through education and advocacy for thirty five years.

Milwaukee features world-class events and attractions, but no single event highlights the environment that these attractions occur in and around. On the weekend of September 20th and 21st, the fourth annual Doors Open Milwaukee event will open the doors to over 100 wonderful buildings free-of-charge to the public –buildings that hold hidden treasures and special stories – from churches to office buildings, theaters to work sites, museums to hotels, clubs to universities; all sites of historic, architectural, cultural, or commercial interest. And remember — if it rains, most of our activities are indoors.

The event has two major components: 1) design your own itinerary to visit over 100 buildings that will open their doors (often with guided tours, no tickets necessary); 2) join one or more of over 40 in-depth tours that are ticketed
