Mariposa : celebrating Canadian folk music : Children's Area
Children's Area
From the mid-seventies onward, Mariposa featured children's concerts and children's musical workshops during the festival. This eventually developed into a year-round operation that became known as the MITS (Mariposa In The Schools) Program, which sent folk musicians into local Ontario schools to teach music and give performances.
Here is the musician Lois Lilienstein performing at a 1975 children's concert.
