MATCHMAKING:
PEOPLE AND PLACES
By welcoming the public into a range of sites at the heart of our neighborhoods, meeting their stewards and learning their stories, we become connected to people and places and gain new perspectives on where we live. Through forging these connections we aim to instill residents with a greater sense of belonging and pride in our communities, transforming them into advocates for our built environment and ambassadors of Rhode Island.
Doors Open RI provides behind-the-scenes access to the most unique places throughout Pawtucket. This follows in the footsteps of 50+ cities around the world developing citywide open house festivals, such as London, Toronto, New York City and Baltimore. Doors Open RI Director, Caroline Stevens, previously managed Open House Chicago, now the largest open house festival in the country experienced by over 100,000 people annually.
