Welcome to Open Door!

Open Door is a community and arts space on Berkhamsted high street where you can be active, creative and social, whatever your circumstances.

We offer a wide range of activities, from workshops and exhibitions, to volunteering opportunities and other ways to make a difference. Or you can just come and have a cup of tea and a chat!

Tackling social inequality and isolation is at the heart of what we do as a charity. We enable everyone to connect and contribute, for their own wellbeing and that of the wider community.

Book on to our events here, and check www.opendoorberkhamsted.co.uk/whats-on to see the other events coming up at Open Door run by our partners. For gift vouchers, please click the 'vouchers' heading below.

We're looking forward to seeing you soon!

-- Note about payments - our booking system uses PayPal to take payments - you do not need to have or create a PayPal account to make a payment, although sometimes PayPal leads you to think so. If you are struggling to pay, please switch to a desktop instead of a phone where it works better! Thank you --
