WCB Mission Statement: West Coast Blues Inc. is a non-profit organization that supports blues artists - locally, nationally and internationally - by producing blues events. These events in turn support the Arts, Culture and Tourism of Huron County, and in particular the Town of Goderich, Ontario, Canada... the heart of Ontario's "West Coast". In addition, a portion of the profits from these events are donated to our historic local arts & culture centre... The Livery.
