Art is our first language. Even while we are closed for renovations, our programming continues. You will find our art programmes at off-site locations throughout the year and on the digital platform The Couch. The permanent installations in Het HEM will remain open to the public after the renovation.
Our music programme focuses on experimental ways of making, presenting and experiencing sound in the building through listening sessions, live performances and musical artist-in-residence programmes. During renovations, we organise music programmes at off-site locations and on the digital platform The Couch.

Situated in a former munitions factory, Het HEM is a new home for contemporary culture.
Second Edition of the Jazz Bar in the basement.
Dynamic Range Music Bar, our listening bar equipped with a high-end Klipschorn & McIntosh sound system, opened in 2019 in the basement of Het HEM and grew to be an intimate place for music lovers. Since 2020 we moved the sound system upstairs to Restaurant Zanini in de Huiskamer, in order to create a more spacious setting for our weekly listening sessions. To implement these ongoing weekly sessions in de Huiskamer, we are resurrecting the basement bar in 2022, hosting a monthly evening of concentrated listening with a more or less traditional audiophile Jazz Bar approach. The Dynamic Range residents and their guests will select the records for these evenings as well as a monthly curated drinks menu.
Time: 19u - 23u
