When Lynn Adler and Lindy Hearne opened Crossroads five years ago, music and the arts were here, but pretty well unknown to the public at large, especially to those in the Dallas area.

With their own music, as well as the performances of many other musicians they enticed to Winnsboro, Crossroads started catching the attention of music lovers from Dallas. Many of these are weekenders who own second homes on one of the many lakes in the area.

Perhaps more importantly, they also raised the profile of Winnsboro as a place to find seriously good roots music so even critics in Dallas noticed.

Today, Crossroads' musical performances take place in the Winnsboro Center of the Arts in anticipation of renovations being completed on the new home of Crossroads on Market St.

The 5th Anniversary event reminds us of the impact Crossroads has had on the expanding music scene in Winnsboro. It also gives us a chance to thank the founders who made Crossroads a cornerstone of the arts community.

Here's a special bonus. . . Lindy's daughter, South Plains College sophomore Kate Hearne -- who appeared many times on the front-porch stage at the Main Street location -- will perform as well. Lindy's son, Denton-based singer/songwriter Warren Jackson Hearne, will be featured too.
