Ava Gardner Museum →

Ava Gardner (1922-1990) was born in Smithfield, NC, a little over an hour away from the UNC-CH campus. The state of North Carolina is incredibly lucky to have such a unique museum chronicling the life of one of film’s greatest stars. Known for her roles in The Killers, The Barefoot Contessa, and The Night of the Iguana, Gardner’s life and the museum’s collection will be discussed at 7 PM in 304 Manning Hall on 4/19/2012. This night will be a wonderful breath of fresh air during the final push of the Spring semester!
