Overview

Arts & Culture | E-commerce and Donations Platform

Camden Arts Centre is a renowned London-based institution that places the artist at the heart of everything it does, while encouraging public engagement with contemporary art. Their website needed to reflect this vision while also providing the practical tools to support events, donations, and retail.

I worked with the team to deliver a custom e-commerce solution built on ExpressionEngine, tailored to the needs of a cultural nonprofit.

Project Highlights:

  • Custom E-commerce Integration
    Developed a flexible store system within ExpressionEngine, supporting both tangible and digital goods, including zero-cost products like free event tickets or downloadable content.

  • Donation Support (Gift Aid Eligible)
    Integrated donation functionality with Gift Aid support for UK taxpayers, making it easy for visitors to contribute while maximizing the impact of their donations.

  • Ticket Booking System
    Built a simple, user-friendly interface for booking tickets to events and exhibitions—designed to work seamlessly across desktop and mobile.

  • Secure Checkout with PayPal Payments Pro
    Implemented a smooth and secure checkout experience using PayPal Payments Pro, ensuring reliability and trust for users.

Tech Stack:

  • CMS: ExpressionEngine
  • Frontend: HTML5, CSS3, jQuery

This project blended usability, accessibility, and a clean aesthetic to support both the institution’s operational needs and its creative mission—making it easier for the public to support and engage with the arts.
