Welcome to Thursday Doors! This is a weekly challenge for people who love doors and architecture to come together to admire and share their favorite door photos, drawings, or other images or stories from around the world. If you’d like to join us, simply create your own Thursday Doors post each (or any) week and then share a link to your post in the comments below, anytime between 12:01 am Thursday morning and Saturday noon (North American eastern time). If you like, you can add our badge to your post.
The badge contest ended in a tie, so I will be altering the badge I use here, but you are welcome to use either of the winning badges.
Whenever we’re in Pittsburgh, we visit the Strip District, a former home to warehouses and wholesalers that has been undergoing a metamorphosis for many years. The Strip is now home to stores, cafes, restaurants, apartments and office buildings. The captions give you a feel for what’s going on in the photos, so I’m going to skip to the announcement we’ve been waiting for.
The 2025 Thursday Doors Writing Challenge (TDWC) is LIVE!
- Visit the challenge home page
- Pick one or more door(s) that inspires your creative spirit
- Write something, anything, or otherwise create or perform something based on that image
- Post your creation on your blog and link to the TDWC Page (preferred) or to any of my posts, or email me the link.
- If you need to use email, you can reach me at NoFacilities at gmail dot com.
You can write once, twice, or as many times as you like. TDWC is active until Mat 31st. I’ll do my best to promote your posts, and I’ll be urging everyone to read or otherwise admire the various creations posted by the participants.
I hope you enjoy the photos in my gallery. I also hope you visit other participants and check on the TDWC page for new writing entries.
