Most any time you visit our space, you can see a media installation, featuring work created by local artists and producers. Every month, we also offer public events that allow you to engage directly with the Open Signal community.
See our current list of exhibitions and events.
A collaboration with the Regional Arts & Culture Council, Fresh Paint provides an opportunity for first-time muralists to create a temporary mural on our wall facing the heavily trafficked NE MLK Jr. Blvd. Murals rotate every six months.
Works from artists Emily Fitzgerald, Molly Sherman, Machado Mijiga and Sailor Winkleman will be featured all year long in an installation titled Hold the Phone, a Futel phone installed outside of Open Signal's side entrance on NE Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd and NE Graham street. Additionally, the phone offers free telephone calls, voicemail and telephone-mediated services.
Hold the Phone serves as an interactive and experimental sound art and storytelling project exploring topics vital to inner North and Northeast Portland neighborhoods. Projects will also be accessible from several public Futel locations in Portland, including SE Clinton St, SE Taylor St, NE Ainsworth St, NE Killingsworth Alley, NE Killingsworth St, and NE 8th St.
Hold the Phone projects are also available on our SoundCloud profile:
