SUMMARY:Chautauqua Festival 2026 - Revolutionary Americans - Edgar Allan Poe
DESCRIPTION:Hear his story in his own words. Edgar Poe was scarcely two when his father abandoned the family\, leaving an ailing wife and three children. When he was three\, his mother died and the children were separated to live with others. Edgar became the foster child of Virginia merchant John Allan. He later attended admitted the University of Virginia but was forced to take out loans to pay for it. To pay off the loans he disastrously tried gambling to win the money\, instead falling deeper into debt. After many trials and tribulations\, Poe became the editor of several of the nation’s most successful literary magazines. These often featured his own original short stories\, poems and literary essays. With the writing of “The Raven\,” Poe’s talent became recognized nationwide. He toured the states giving literary reviews\, poetry demonstrations and even scientific lectures. But his great successes were punctuated by bouts of drunkenness and depression\, especially after the early death of his wife at the age of 24 following her extended struggle with tuberculosis. Poe was never an ordinary hail-fellow-well-met. He was dark\, moody\, always looking for love and acceptance and talented beyond his peers. From his childhood to his death\, he created wonderfully crafted poetry and memorable tales and now seems to those who study his life and his works as if he were himself a character from one of his own stories. \nLarry Bounds (Edgar Allen Poe)  \nLarry Bounds has been a Chautauqua performer since 2002\, presenting an assortment of figures including Churchill\, Einstein\, Houdini and Disney for festivals from Florida to Colorado and Nevada. This year he is revisiting one of his favorite authors: Edgar Allan Poe\, a haunted\, literary genius that he taught about in his English classes for decades. In 2019 Larry retired as a nationally certified teacher after 35 years in the classroom. He earned his B.A. in theatre and an M.S. in Education from The University of Tennessee. Larry also still regularly performs as a professional magician as he has since 1973 when he performed for 8 years for Ripley’s Believe It or Not! He lives in Greer\, South Carolina with his wife Carole\, is active in Mensa and serves on\nseveral community boards. \nBased in Greenville\, SC\, Chautauqua History Comes Alive is interactive theater and the performances offer an astonishing journey into the past allowing the audience to hear stories of the characters in their own words. This year’s character performances are Rebecca Motte (Saturday\, June 13); Paul Robeson (Tuesday\, June 16); Mother Jones (Thursday\, June 18); Captain Henry Felder Saturday\, June 20); and Edgar Allan Poe (Tuesday\, June 23). Doors open one hour before show\, seating is first come\, first served. The Chautauqua Festival at the Transylvania County Library is made possible by the generous support of the Friends of the Library.

Class will take place in the library amphitheater April through November.  We’ll move inside to the Rogow Room during the colder months from December – March. There are no rain dates\, but the porch might be an alternate location for gentle rain.  Yoga is an ancient practice that uses a series of seated and standing body poses held with a focus on the breath and the inner experience.  Yoga is a great mood booster and increases flexibility of mind and body. Everyone is welcome!  This class is free and open to all ages and experiences levels.  Pop in for a single class or attend them all. \nBring a yoga mat or towel and water\, and be sure to dress in layers!\nClare Desmelik has been practicing yoga since the early 2000’s and believes it to be a saving grace. She trusts in the power of taking a deep breath\, as well as taking some ‘time in’ to notice and find awareness in the body.  She feels that anyone’s emotional\, physical\, or mental health will benefit from a gentle yoga practice.  It helps reclaim your sense of calm and quiets the mind; it helps you find freedom and courage in your heart; and it allows you to feel strength and poise in your capable body. She has been enjoying teaching yoga in the Brevard and Asheville area since 2016.  She brings an approachable and revitalizing ‘go with the flow’ vibe to her classes\, which are suitable for any and all!   Clare is also the Spanish and Yoga teacher at Mountain Sun Community School\, a full-time advocate for childhood cancer and pediatric brain tumor awareness\, a grateful mom of two awesome boys\, and is often seen with her golden retrievers.

DESCRIPTION:Join us for yoga at the Library!\nClass starts at 9:30 am\, and instructor Clare Desmelik leads the series. Class will take place in the library amphitheater April through November.  We’ll move inside to the Rogow Room during the colder months from December – March. There are no rain dates\, but the porch might be an alternate location for gentle rain.  Yoga is an ancient practice that uses a series of seated and standing body poses held with a focus on the breath and the inner experience.  Yoga is a great mood booster and increases flexibility of mind and body. Everyone is welcome!  This class is free and open to all ages and experiences levels.  Pop in for a single class or attend them all. \nBring a yoga mat or towel and water\, and be sure to dress in layers!\nClare Desmelik has been practicing yoga since the early 2000’s and believes it to be a saving grace. She trusts in the power of taking a deep breath\, as well as taking some ‘time in’ to notice and find awareness in the body.  She feels that anyone’s emotional\, physical\, or mental health will benefit from a gentle yoga practice.  It helps reclaim your sense of calm and quiets the mind; it helps you find freedom and courage in your heart; and it allows you to feel strength and poise in your capable body. She has been enjoying teaching yoga in the Brevard and Asheville area since 2016.  She brings an approachable and revitalizing ‘go with the flow’ vibe to her classes\, which are suitable for any and all!   Clare is also the Spanish and Yoga teacher at Mountain Sun Community School\, a full-time advocate for childhood cancer and pediatric brain tumor awareness\, a grateful mom of two awesome boys\, and is often seen with her golden retrievers. She is authentically convinced that ‘Love Heals’ and yoga is all about love.
