Do you believe in fairies? If not, perhaps a trip to the city of Ann Arbor, Michigan, will change your mind. All over town, you will see tiny doors in the walls of various places, and what is behind the doors is truly special. Children delight in opening these doors to reveal incredible miniature worlds where tiny fairies might live, work, and play. At the local movie theater, a mini-door was built into the theater's own wooden doors. If you open it up, you will see a small fairy theater made just for the magical creatures.
Where did these little fairy doors come from? They jumped from the creative mind of local Ann Arbor artist Jonathan Wright. He got his start building fairy doors in his own home. His kids loved them, and he used them in the telling of fantastic stories. In 2005, he began putting these creative doors around town. Before long, he had his own fairy door business called Urban Fairies Operations. Through the power of imagination, Wright has turned an ordinary town into a place of childlike wonder.
