Amy Beth Crossin has a degree in art, but hadn‘t done much with it for years. Little did she know that her hiking adventures would bring her an adventure in art, and allow her to get closer with her family at the same time.

Crossin’s adventures began this past summer as she packed up her two daughters - Emily, 7 and Erin, 5 along with her husband Dan and begin to explore her hometown for the sake of creating saleable art.

“President of the Grafton Land Trust , Michael Urban, is also the head of the Grafton Farmer’s Market ,” Crossin said. “He is a friend of mine and approached me about wanting to add art tables to the Farmer's Market. This was a great thing for me to do. It was inspirational for me to take the summer and hike with my kids and take photos and create art.”
