Leading up to the GOST TOUR, this year’s artists have painted old doors with bright colors, fun and unexpected images, and surprise views of all sorts. The GOST DOORS will first be on display at the Gardiner Cupcake Festival on May 19th, 2018 from 12:00 pm – 5:00 pm.

Then, from May 20th to June 11th, the GOST DOORS will pop up along the streets of Gardiner, inviting locals and visitors to ‘GO BEHIND THE DOORS’ on the weekend of the GOST TOUR (June 9-10). Many a cheerful selfie will record these temporary works of public art.
