This place is so fun, has free WiFi; place to purchase coffee or hot chocolate. Small areas for children to let out energy with music and some learning. Lots of chairs for adults to sit and relax with plenty of room for others.

Unique place, hard to describe because there's nothing to compare it to. A place with an art studio, kitchen, play room, meeting spaces, giant slides and playground, tractor museum. A public "hang out" space, if you will, chockful of sensory experiences. Live music outside.

You're never too old to go down a slide.

Tried to plan an event here. Toured the facility, filled out the application. Took the events planner, Erika over a week to respond to us, rejecting our application with no explanation, except for "we're already booked on that day," and a "good luck on finding your venue" excuse. When asked for help to find an available date, she rejected us again, stating that our mission (educational crypto club) did not align with JUMP. What's the point of having a center for the community if your planners are going to pick and choose what events are allowed, it's not really an urban meeting place. Erika straight shut us down and came up with every excuse in the book she could to decline our application. Jack would be disappointed. Our attempt to bring light to the web development and creativity behind cryptocurrency and blockchain technology was shut down. Kind of funny, when Simple had much to do with Micron's debut into research and development in technology. Left a bad taste in our mouth - we will be reluctant to come to JUMP for future events.
