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.
Het HEM loves books. During your visit, come lose yourself in the library's rich selection.
The building's industrial design and our experimental art programme bring ambience and meaning to every event.
Situated in a former munitions factory, Het HEM is a new home for contemporary culture.
Next Wednesday, June 14, 1130 HIFI and our very own Dynamic Range Music Bar will team up for a listening event at Benelux Bar in Amsterdam Noord.
1130 HIFI is a new brand of hand-built, High-End audio gear by Amsterdam local and music lover Jules Brans. For this event 1130 HIFI has completed an entire sound system, from turntable, amplifier, cables and speakers.
They invited our music curator Orpheu de Jong, aka Orpheu the Wizard, to select and play his favourite records for this listening session.
Please RSVP by sending an email to rsvp@1130hifi.com. Limited seats are available.
