Steveston Folk Guild
Late in 1999 Dave McArthur, a Steveston resident, Richmond realtor and musician, had an idea for starting up a Folk Club. First priority - finding a unique, informal setting, suitable for acoustic performers. Not too big, not too formal, and with reasonable acoustics. When he visited the Britannia Heritage Shipyard, he knew he'd found the perfect spot.
