York University and the Mariposa Folk Festival are working together to preserve and promote Canadian folk music and art history.
A special musical event featuring performances by Mariposa Folk Festival alumni David Bradstreet and David Woodhead will be held at noon at the Scott Library on the Keele campus Wednesday to announce the details of this unique partnership.
