The Hexagon Music Library is the catalog of songs we play between bands at shows and during gallery openings. We are committed to highlighting the music of local and underexposed artists and we would love to have your band’s songs in our catalog. Feel free to send us music through the SoundCloud DropBox link below.
The Hexagon Space is entering a new era with two major changes taking place.
In its first step to becoming a tax-exempt non-profit, The Hexagon Space incorporated as a non-profit corporation in Maryland. It is continuing its efforts to become a 501(c)(3) organization under federal law, thus enabling it to accept tax-deductible donations and to apply for a wider range of foundation grants.
January 9th to February 6th, 2010.
The Hexagon, in conjunction with My House Gallery (Philadelphia), presents: Baltidelphia, an experimental collaboration curated by Phuong Pham (the Hexagon) and Alex Gartelmann (My House).
The Baltidelphia exhibition features 22 Baltimore artists paired with 22 Philadelphia artists who were asked to collaborate/correspond through whatever means they chose—facebook, text message, twitter, carrier pigeon, postal mail, sky-writing, etc. Rather than get lost in the flood of tweeting that flickrs to your tumbl that feeds to your blog (LOL smileyface), Baltidelphia embraces communication, distance, and geography as points of departure to create a project. Baltidelphia will be exhibited in both Baltimore and Philadelphia, with selections of the projects being displayed in each spaces. The Hexagon will have a soft opening on Saturday, January 9th, as some participating Baltimore artists will be traveling to My House Gallery for a joint opening reception.
Philadelphia artists will travel to Baltimore, Saturday, February 6th for the closing. Participating artists (Bmore & Philly): Kathy Beachler & Martha Savery, Emily Claire Dierkes & Jim Grilli, Miguel Sabogal & Bryan Patrick Rice, Jon Bevers & Damian Weinkrantz, Kathleen Mazurek & Daniel Potterton, Sarah Magida & Kristen Neville, Mike Riley & Tim Pannell, Jared Fischer & Tyler Kline, Freda Mohr & Andrew Brehm, Heather Von Marko & Hannah Heffner, Julie Pahr & Fernando Ramos, Andrew Geddes & Daniel Petraitis, Na Kim & Mike Ryan, Jennifer Mullins & Leah Mackin, Ric Royer & Beth Heinly, Robert Brulinski & Piper Brett, Magnolia Laurie & Nike Desis, Megan Lavelle & Jen Gin, Sean Scheidt & Masha Badinter, Monique Crab & Hope Rovelto, Phuong Pham & Alex Gartelman

And second, your logo will be all up on our jock! As we continue to expand our community and creative identity, we will be using this logo on everything from strengthening our web presence (twitter, facebook, blog) to distributing our promotional materials (fliers, business cards, gallery postcards, press releases, etc).
