Bohemian National Hall, 3rd floor
We regret to announce that due to Covid -19, all March events at the Bohemian National Hall have been cancelled.
We hope to reschedule the 6-Minute Challenge in May 2020. Hopefully by then, the virus will weaken and cease to exist.
In the meantime, you can visit our Youtube channel to catch up on the events that you couldn’t attend. Please subscribe!
