The Willam Jam Music Festival is a multicultural climate and social justice fundraiser and benefit concert hosted by Portland, Oregon-based organizations, Mosquito Fleet and Indigenous Peoples Project, to raise funds for Environmental Justice, Landback and operations and programming expenses. IP3 is raising funds to ensure the longevity of their new Landback Project as an Indigenous-run and led space dedicated to upholding movement ideologies, land connection, reconnection, and rematriation. This project will continue IP3’s work of building capacity with Indigenous communities, networks, and partners with a sustainable base to gather, cultivate, and learn. Mosquito Fleet is raising funds to support a summer of activity on the water, including kayaktivism training, social paddles and the free kayak lending library.
