Open the DOOR to Sustainability is a unique art show and fundraising event to benefit The ReBuilding Center and Sustainability. Inspired by the work of renowned NW artist LeRoy Setziol, artists from the local region are creating works of art from reclaimed doors. These doors, along with many other exciting things, will be auctioned at the event. Learn more by visiting the website: www.openthedoortosustainability.com
Open the DOOR to Sustainability will be an event of recognition, networking and continued joint efforts to bring sustainable living to the forefront of mainstream society. The event will feature a very special door carved by premiere Northwest artist, LeRoy Setziol, on display for the first time. On auction are 100 works of original art created by local artists, made from salvaged doors – an homage to LeRoy, the “father of woodworking.” In addition to a live and silent auction, guests will enjoy local, organic food; locally produced beers, wines and liquor; the musical sylings of saxophonist Patrick Lamb; and many raffle prizes to go around. We hope you’ll join us. Learn more about the inspiration behind this event:
