I have a passion for collecting sweet mementos of Martha's Vineyard island. This place is special and many folks that visit the island enjoy taking a souvenir with them when they depart. Be it jewelry, gifts, keepsakes or chocolate, everything is a little sweeter when it hails from the Island.
When she's not traveling, Roberta Kirn helps me make jewelry. But Roberta's passion is music, and as part of her Song Exchange Project she travels to faraway places to learn and share songs that help link us as humans and join us in community.
