Discover 618 ARTlington: Doors Open Winnipeg

618 will once again be open for Doors Open Winnipeg! This annual free @HeritageWinnipeg event encourages the public to explore historic buildings in the city. It's an opportunity for discovery, education, fostering community and appreciating Winnipeg's architectural and cultural heritage.

Our building dates back to 1912, when the Northland Knitting Co built it. In 2012 it was renovated using reclaimed materials, eclectic antiques, and a distinctive design approach. Now home to more than 30 artists, it blends historic character with contemporary creativity. This year marks the first Doors Open with our fourth floor and newly renovated lower level available for self-guided tours.

In addition to opening our doors for you to wander our historic building, we will also have 20+ artists on site with open studios! Some will be doing art demos, and all will be happy to talk to visitors about art and our building! We hope to see you there (and don't forget to enter the People's Choice Award, Social Media Contest, and Golden Boy Scavenger Hunt!)
