Tiny Doors ATL is a public art installation throughout metro Atlanta, based in culturally significant locations within the city. Artist Karen Singer began the project in 2014 as a way to create community through public art. The project has grown to over 30 installations, with most installations open to the general public for free, outdoor viewing. The artist known as Tiny Doors ATL is Karen Singer, the mind and artist behind the project. She holds a degree in Visual Art from Rutgers University. Singer created Tiny Doors ATL in 2014 and has regularly updated and expanded the art installation in the more than 10 years since its birth. Tiny Doors ATL was created as a form of public art designed to build community. Numbered doors are open and free to the public at all times. The official Tiny Doors ATL website includes an interactive map linked to door locations for ease of access.
The Artist Karen Anderson Singer created the Tiny Doors ATL project in 2014, one year after moving to Atlanta. After growing up in Ann Arbor, Michigan, she joined a punk band, where she found a love of art while on the road. She later earned a degree in Visual Art from Rutgers University, and moved to Atlanta after graduation. Singer created Tiny Doors ATL to be a space for community and growth through artwork, and was granted a Tiny Key to the City of Atlanta for her public art from Representative Natalyn Archibong.
The Project Created in 2014, Tiny Doors ATL consist of over 30 7-inch decorative doors placed throughout the metro-Atlanta area. Each door is handcrafted to match the neighborhood they reside in, and artist Karen Singer spends between 50 and 60 hours on each one. Singer says that each door is designed to reflect the spirit of its location and foster community through artwork. Each piece is specifically requested or commissioned based on local residents and businesses. Over the years, Tiny Doors ATL has amassed countless fans and garnered the attention of major brands such as Coca-Cola and Fox Theatre. The official Instagram of Tiny Doors ATL boasts 117,000 Instagram followers as of March 2026.
