Open House Vilnius is an open architecture weekend held in Vilnius, which has been organised since 2015.
The main purpose of the event is to create an opportunity for everyone to take an interest in architecture and to learn more about it.
During such weekends, the buildings in Vilnius that have a remarkable architectural quality as well as special significance to the city and its communities are opened to the public. The programme includes tours of buildings guided by volunteers, the building architects and “residents”.
Open House Vilnius is organised by the voluntary, non-governmental and not for profit public institution “Architektūros fondas”.
The Open House event began several decades ago. The very first Open House architecture festival was held in London in 1992. It created great interest and excitement, and soon became popular all over the world. Currently, the Open House weekend happens every year in more than thirty cities around the world: Barcelona, Helsinki, Rome, Melbourne, New York, and many others. All of these cities are united by the international network of “Open House Worldwide” and by a common goal: to involve the public in discussions about the quality of the architecture and the environment, while helping people to understand and learn about these buildings and spaces through direct experience.
“High quality buildings and public spaces are inseparable from the viable development and enhancement of an urban environment. The Open House is an opportunity that allows the public to become more knowledgeable, engage in dialogue and make informed judgements about architecture”
said the Open House initiator, Victoria Thornton.
