BERKELEY FINNISH HALL
Location Details
We are pleased to offer wcciJAM 2024 as one of the very first events at the Berkeley Finnish Hall following accessibility upgrades. Familiar to many dancers from weekly jams, the Berkeley Finnish Hall is a warm community space with a large dance hall, cafeteria and kitchen, and all-gender restrooms.

The venue is located in an urban area close to city parks, a public pool, and many restaurants.
Morning intensives will also be at the BUSD West Campus Gym, which is right across University Ave. from the hall.
We aim for wcciJAM to be accessible to wheelchair users. If you have access needs or any requests regarding accessibility, please contact us. If you want to support the access upgrades at Berkeley Finnish Hall, please visit the GoFundMe!
