Guest Speaker
George Smart
What’s North Carolina’s greatest secret? We have the third most Modernist houses in the country. Seriously. Archivist and architectural historian George Smart’s discovery of North Carolina’s large number of “livable works of art” in 2007 led him to start North Carolina Modernist houses, the largest open digital archive of Modernist residential architecture and architects in the nation.
During this exciting and visually fascinating 20-minute presentation, you’ll visually explore some of the state’s Modernist gems, many still glorious, some endangered, and some destroyed forever.
Since 2010, NCMH’s founder and Executive Director George Smart has taken Mayberry Modernism on the road to architects, preservation organizations, realtor associations, senior centers, and other fans across the state. Mayberry Modernism includes time for questions, plus George will stay afterwards to talk with us.
