Congratulations to NSCC Music Arts Marconi grad Steve MacIntyre on his new role as Artistic Director of Stan Rogers Folk Festival.

We know that he will be an excellent addition to their team of talented professionals and wish him nothing but success in his future endeavours.

Cool news to share!📣
We are so pleased to announce that our planning team is growing. Almost 30 years ago, Troy was mentored by Winnipeg Folk Festival founder, Mitch Podolak. Paying it forward, he is co-producing this year’s festival with Steve MacIntyre, who has joined the team as Artistic Director. This is an exciting step, allowing us to steer the festival in some exciting new directions. Steve has programmed an incredible festival and there is lots more to share soon! *A talented singer-songwriter and a graduate of the NSCC Music Business program, Steve has lots of family in the Canso area. You don’t need to be a super-hero to work for Stanfest, but it sure helps!
