What’s The Buzz….Tell Me What’s Happening

There is a really special place that’s come up in a quiet cosy corner of Sushant Lok 1 in Gurgaon. A great environment for Adults AND Kids, The Beehive, to come Discover, Explore and Pursue their Hobbies, Passions or just have a rollicking good time!

The Beehive....Fun, Quirky & Creative

The Beehive’s brightly lit studio exudes positivity and the passion of the host is palpable. Collaborator Selection, Ambience, Content Design etc. are painstakingly worked and re-worked to get things just right. 

The array of activities and the way they are conducted are very different from the usual, run of the mill stuff that you may have read about or experienced.

From animation to theatre to gardening to exploring Indian art forms…. and much more The Beehive is a continuously evolving fun-hub catering to different schedules, moods and interests

As the founder - Loveena explains – “This is a Creative space for both Adults and Children…with a big emphasis on hands on involvement and individual attention…The Beehive is being nurtured as a place of experimentation and free expression -  where you can let your hair down, explore a hobby and strike new friendships – all at your own pace”

The Genesis....

 

The Beehive​ is an initiative of Loveena Singh​ an ex Banker and entrepreneur with a creative streak and a blithe spirit. It all started with a casual interest in Art & Craft which morphed into a passion, and then a business idea which made her quit a comfortable career as a banker to develop successful corporate gifting venture. Family commitments took her overseas and after spending a couple of enriching years in New York – she headed back home to Gurgaon.

During the process of settling in, she started to look around for exciting and creative avenues for herself and the family. Nothing too structured, just easy paced and offering a variety of hobbies in a welcoming environment. 

Loveena’s search led to the conception of The Beehive - where she works with quality, like minded collaborators who share her vision.  She is always on the look out for exciting ideas to develop into engaging workshops and activities.
