Country music meets opera in the most unlikely\, unbelievable and undoubtedly the most popular play to ever come through Barter’s Appalachian Festival of Plays and Playwrights. A struggling opera singer has a dream: to sing the lead in Carmen. Her agent thinks she’s found the answer! But she finds herself singing at a state fair with a country music band called the Car Men —agents clash\, people panic\, and the singers erupt at the worst of possible moments in one of the funniest musicals you will ever experience.

SUMMARY:Birthplace of Country Music Museum: Terry Baucom’s Dukes of Drive
DESCRIPTION:TERRY BAUCOM’S DUKES OF DRIVE\nJUN 11 – 7:00PM TO 8:00PM\nThe Birthplace of Country Music proudly hosts Terry Baucom’s Dukes of Drive as part of The Crooked Road’s Mountains of Music Homecoming! \nDate: Monday\, June 11\, 2018 \nTime: 7:00 p.m. & 9:00 p.m. (Two shows!) \nLocation: Birthplace of Country Music Museum \nTickets: $20 Adults\, $10 Children 12 and under \nBUY TICKETS \n \nAbout Terry Baucom’s Dukes of Drive\nA native of Monroe\, North Carolina\, Terry Baucom has enjoyed a career in music that started in 1970 with Charlie Moore and continued over the years as a founding member of ground breaking bands like Boone Creek (with Ricky Skaggs and Jerry Douglas)\, Doyle Lawson &\nQuicksilver\, IIIrd Tyme Out and more. Winner of the 2013 IBMA Recorded Event of the Year for “What’ll I Do\,” Baucom currently tours with his own band\, Terry Baucom’s Dukes of Drive. \nHis single “The Rock” finished 2015 as Bluegrass radio’s most played song on the Bluegrass Today chart. The band’s current Top 10 single “Around The Corner” is recieving heavy national and international airplay. In 2008\, Deering Banjos introduced the Terry Baucom Signature model banjo\, while the Dunlop company also uses Baucom as an endorser\, offering Terry Baucom custom sets of banjo strings. A testament to his influence is evident when you listen to countless younger generation banjo players who use Baucom signature licks and emulate his driving technique. In addition to playing on numerous recording sessions and producing instructional materials\, Baucom teaches banjo\, both privately and in camp and workshop settings. \nThe Dukes of Drive consists of Joey Lemons from King\, North Carolina\, on mandolin and vocals; Will Jones of Cana\, Virginia\, on guitar and vocals; and Joe Hannabach of Pfafftown\, North Carolina on bass.

SUMMARY:Reading Appalachia: Voices from Children’s Literature
DESCRIPTION:The McKinney Center in partnership with the Heritage Alliance of Northeast Tennessee & Southwest Virginia and Jonesborough’s Washington County Public Library announce the opening of Reading Appalachia: Voices from Children’s Literature at the McKinney Center. The exhibit is open to the public\, Monday–Friday\, 8:00 am  to 5:00 p.m. and Saturday\, 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.\, and runs through July 7\, 2018. \n\nThis groundbreaking exhibition of Appalachian children’s literature explores books published since the late 1800s. Organized by the Knox County Public Library and the East Tennessee Historical Society in Knoxville\, Tennessee\, and based on research by Jamie Osborn\, Manager of the Halls Branch\, Knox County Public Library\, Reading Appalachia aims to show a more complete picture of the region’s literary heritage and how this literature tells the story of childhood in Appalachia. \n\nThe Heritage Alliance will be hosting story times with Mother Goose; Saturday\, June 16 at 1:00 from 2:00 p.m.\, Tuesday\, June 19 from 1:00 to 2:00 p.m.\, and Wednesday\, June 20 from 1:00 to 2:00 p.m. Join Mother Goose and her friend Canada the goose as they share nursery rhymes and stories. The show is appropriate for guests of all ages\, whether you’re three or ninety-three! Marjorie Shaefer\, a member of the Jonesborough Storytellers Guild\, has been performing as Mother Goose for over 30 years. \n\nThe Washington County Library will be hosting two story times; Saturday\, June 23 at 10:30 a.m. and Tuesday\, June 26 at 10:30 a.m. Join Miss Jaden at Children’s Storytime for the opportunity for children and their parents to come together for stories\, songs\, crafts and more! \n\nSporting life-size characters from some of the books\, the exhibit is designed to create the sensation of walking through the pages of a storybook. Children can stand eye-to-eye with characters from Journey Cake Ho\, A Mountain Rose\, When Otter Tricked the Rabbit\, When I Was Young\, and others. The exhibit includes hands on activities that bring the subject to life for kids of all ages. Children are encouraged to try on masks of storybook characters and find themselves in a story. They are also invited to create their own story of childhood set in Appalachia. \n\nAttendees can view original films and hear the voice of old time storyteller Ray Hicks along with some of their favorite authors and illustrators. Each panel includes an interpretation of the text from a child’s perspective. \nAn exhibit of Appalachian children’s literature at this scale has never been produced; this exhibition is designed to travel to other libraries and locations in and around Appalachia. Reading Appalachia: Voices from Children’s Literature is made possible through the generous support of Clayton Homes\, the Jane L. Pettway Foundation\, Friends of the Knox County Public Library\, and the University of Tennessee’s Center for Children and Young Adult Literature. \n\nPerhaps more than any other region\, Appalachia has captured the nation’s imagination. It is a land where the blue smoke of the mountains\, the self-sufficiency of life in a holler\, and the singsong of an enthralling storyteller come together in a near mythic culture. Few things capture our hearts and senses more vividly than children’s books. They ignite imagination and help bring structure and understanding to developing minds. Their stories linger and guide us into adulthood; they help define us. \n\nAppalachia is a land about which stories are told. By examining seminal titles published over the decades since the late 1800s\, we hope to show the fuller picture of our region’s literary heritage\, and how this literature tells the story of childhood in Appalachia. \n\nAll the programs will be held at the McKinney Center\, located at 103 Franklin Ave\, Jonesborough\, TN 37659. For more information contact the McKinney Center at 423-753-0562.
