Venue
WordCamp Jackson will take place on the second floor of the Consumers Energy Innovation Center located in downtown Jackson, Michigan. The CEIC is pretty shiny and new, having opened in 2016 as a place for business collaboration and innovation. You can read more about the purpose of the CEIC here. We think it’s going to be perfect for WordCamp Jackson and thank Consumers Energy for hosting us!
