How it works

From a phone in the pew to a card on the wall.

Hymn & Hue runs the whole lifecycle of an arts ministry. Your artists submit, your leaders approve, and the gallery, the cards, and the archive take care of themselves.

Step one · Submit

Artists submit from any phone.

You share one link. Artists open it, add a photo of their work, a title, the medium, the inspiration scripture or theme, a short caption that fits the printed card, and an optional longer description for the website. They can mark a piece for sale with a price and note, add an optional spoken reflection, and acknowledge your statement of faith, all in a single form.

  • No app to download and no account to create
  • Works on any phone, tablet, or computer
  • Records the statement-of-faith version and date with each piece
  • One artist can submit many pieces, across campuses

Step two · Curate

Nothing goes public without a yes.

Every submission lands in a review queue. A leader can approve it, hide it, edit the details, or set it aside. Curate-before-public is a hard rule, not a setting you can forget to turn on. Artist contact information is never shown publicly.

  • Approve, edit, hide, or hold each piece
  • Roles for your team: read only, edit, edit and delete, and super admin
  • Scope each person's access by campus
  • A gracious way to handle a sensitive submission

Step three · Publish

A gallery that honors the work.

Approved pieces appear in your public gallery, grouped by campus and sermon series. Visitors read the artist's statement, see the inspiration scripture behind the piece, and can listen to an optional recorded reflection. If a piece is for sale, the price and a contact path appear without ever exposing the artist's private details.

  • Organized by campus and sermon series
  • Gallery fonts and colors set to match your church
  • A short caption on the card and a longer description online
  • A link back to an artist's previous work

Step four · Print cards

Signage the office can print.

Hymn & Hue generates identification cards for each piece, in the size you choose, with your church logo, the piece details, and a QR code that opens that artwork online. Print them on plain letter paper, or send the batch to a print shop. A visitor scans the code and lands on the piece, the description, and the artist's audio.

  • Your logo and brand on every card
  • QR code links straight to the piece online
  • Batch print for a whole series at once
  • Choose the card size that fits your display

Step five · Archive

Nothing worth keeping is lost.

When a series comes down, it does not disappear. Past artworks are kept for good, so visitors can revisit past collections and every artist keeps a record of what they have made. Bring a piece back into a current display any time you like.

  • Every series kept for good
  • A per-artist record over time
  • Restore any piece into a current series
