August 28 - September 13, 2025 | Uptown Atlanta

This summer, Hambidge Hive arrives—15 floors up! With panoramic city views, we’re flipping the 15th floor into a full-on creative takeover—think connected rooms, pop-up galleries, cozy lounges, and immersive installations. It’s a space built for hanging out, discovering art, and being part of something that feels alive. From August through September, we will create a unique Hambidge art ecosystem: part studio, part gallery, and part living laboratory. Get ready for immersive installations, experimental works, open studios, and unexpected moments of connection—all set against sweeping city views.

The Hambidge Hive Auction and Performance Party is Saturday, September 13. Tickets on sale in August!
