Boise, Idaho has a lot going on lately. The state’s capital city has exploded with new places to eat, drink, and play, which means we’re constantly discovering new things to do in this beautiful city. One of Boise’s newest attractions is JUMP, which stands for Jack’s Urban Meeting Place. This unique destination is not easily described, though it calls itself a “community gathering place and creative center.” If you’re looking to get to know this eccentric attraction, the self-guided Walk and Wander Tour is the perfect place to start.

Centrally located in downtown Boise between 9th and 11th Street, JUMP is a non-profit interactive creative center and community gathering place. There's truly nothing else like it in the state - possibly the entire country - and exploring it is a must!

Simply put, JUMP is the type of place you have to experience for yourself to fully "get." The self-guided Walk and Wander Tour is a way to do just that.
