Adapt A Door Design Challenge

Memphis Heritage & AIA Memphis are putting the "fun" in fundraiser with their new Adapt A Door Design Challenge...

Here's how it works:

You decide you want to let your creative mind go wild and enter the Adapt A Door Competition (by April 9th). Memphis Heritage lets you pick up the door of your choice at their first ever "Donut Door Dash" on April 25 at 10:00am at the historic Marine Hospital (located at 360 Metal Museum Drive).

Then you make a personal, creative masterpiece out of your door. Transform it into a chair, a table, another door, a rack, a headboard, any piece of furniture...anything you want.

For example, check out this Ping Pong Door, from designer Tobias Franzel. It's a door with a middle section that flips out to reveal a ping pong table.


The final works will be shown at Memphis Heritage's Howard Hall at a silent auction party on August 22nd at 7:30 pm. Be one of the first people to make your mark in this one of a kind event!

Other important info:

Cost to enter the competition is $25.00 per door. For the $25.00 commitment fee you will receive 2 tickets to the "Door Auction" event, be eligible for the grand "Best of Door" award that comes with great prizes.

All final "masterpieces" will be on the MHI and AIA websites and selected ones will be on public display on South Main before the auction.

The final project must contain at least 70 % of the door you started with.
