Tiny Doors Art Installation in Downtown McKinney

This public art installation is a cooperative effort between McKinney Main Street, local artists, and Visit McKinney to provide a fun and engaging "tour" or scavenger hunt for our visitors and locals. Each tiny fairy door is located outside of the business it represents and is created by a local artist. Take the Tiny Door Tour on the McKinney TX! app or web browser to be led on a trail of all the doors and information about the artist who created it.

We'd love to see any creative photos you take with our tiny doors! Share them on social media and use our project hashtags - #mckinneytinydoors and #downtownmckinney - so we can find your photos and share them. Happy door hunting! 

Please note:
From time to time, our tiny pieces of artwork may need repair, so you may not always find every door, but check back as the Tiny Doors Team is actively working to get them repaired and replaced.

Meet Beth Fields

Coordinator of McKinney Tiny Doors

 

Multi-medium artist Beth Fields delights in being known as the "Door Lady of McKinney." She draws on her love for color, pattern, and old things of all kinds to craft pieces that carry an echo of another time and place.

After growing up in the North Dallas suburbs, Beth received a BA from Eugene Lang College in New York City and an MEd from Boston College. Her years on the East Coast and two years in London gave her a wide appreciation for architectural beauty across the UK and Europe.

"I take pictures of doorknobs wherever I go," Beth said, and she credits her love of doors to her voracious childhood reading of ghost stories and Nancy Drew mysteries.

Beth's encaustic and acrylic collage paintings, hand-built pottery, Artfully Remade Journals, photo prints, and stitching pieces are featured at the McKinney Art Gallery in Historic Downtown McKinney. As a co-founder of My Fairy Art Mother, she mentors artists on their own creative path.
