Bismarck Jam Moving to New Site

We have secured a new location for the Bismarck jam sessions.  Starting Sunday, September 12 the Bismarck jam session will be held at the Former Governors' Mansion at 320 E. Ave. B.  Bismarck jams are on the second Sunday of the month, September--May from 1 PM to 5 PM.

Our host is the North Dakota Historical Society. The mansion, built in 1884, was home to 21 governors from 1893 to 1960.
