How We Started & Where We’re Going
Founded in 2001, we were one of the very first Art Hives. Today there are over 300 hives. An Art Hive is a community art studio that welcomes everyone as an artist. From an art pop-up in a local library to a community studio or gallery, at its heart, an Art Hive is about inclusion, respect and learning.
In 2021, we’re celebrating our 20th anniversary and planning for the future.
Where we’re going? Lots of possibilities and we welcome your ideas. Pop-ups…more community events all over the city…puppet parades…hula hoops…you name it…we love creativity!
Come visit us for happy vibes! Stay and make some art…some new friends…re-connect with some old ones. We will be open more days as COVID allows, so check the website often for hours.
