History

After the success of KLT's Dam Jam benefit concert in 2013, which helped raise money to protect the beloved Hungarian Falls in perpetuity, Land Jam sprang to life as a recurring fundraiser to support KLT Land projects. Since 2013, Land Jam has taken many forms, from small concerts at the Orpheum Theater to potlucks and dance parties in the South Range Hall.

After a few years' hiatus, Land Jam is BACK in 2026 and bigger than ever!
