Artist, event, portfolio, and merchandise discovery experiences that connect public storytelling with the next appropriate customer action. CMS-backed artists, event records, event settings, portfolio work, products, and editorial content through Sanity. Event-detail flows for date, location, status, lineup, gallery, FAQ, sharing, ticket links, and related merchandise. Commerce with cart, persistent wishlist behavior, server-side product checks, Stripe payment intents, order verification, and customer order records. Authentication and protected customer/studio workflows using NextAuth and role-aware dashboard access. Brand-led light/dark themes, motion that responds to capability/reduced-motion constraints, loading treatment, and optional sound interactions. Error monitoring and test tooling.

The source demonstrates payment-intent and order-verification code, not a verified live payment transaction. The case study must not claim live revenue, ticket sales, or audience outcomes without user-provided evidence.
