EVENTS
Crossborder Blues was established in October of 2003 by a contingent of event and festival representative from the U.S. and Canadian sides of the Niagara River. All participating organizations, which consist of cultural or community not-for-profits, came together in a collaborative effort to cross-market and promote.
