I have recently set up a Google Code project that uses a FileMaker database to store events. http://code.google.com/p/exhibtmaker/ The database can export a JSON data file and a Exhibit HTML file. This is not a web solution but the files can easily be uploaded to a server. FileMaker can also display its databases on the web.
