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. It's a welcoming place to talk, make art and build communities. Responding in creative ways to things that matter.

SVPortal v2.0 Beta 1 is now available.

This release brings the new setup registry to replace most of the configuration in config.php (some items have to stay there - like database connection details: you cant get the database connection details from the database until you know how to connect to the database!)

Existing users will need to upgrade their grid settings, and a script is provided to do this - but please read the note on the download at https://www.glenysbieler.com/svportal/.

Please visit https://www.glenysbieler.com/svportal/ for more information, and download.

NOTE: SVPortal is a totally separate standalone application running in PHP. It is not a plugin to WordPress or any other CMS it is a full application by itself.
