- Visitors who pre-purchased tickets for an upcoming visit will be automatically refunded within 10 business days, but also have the option of converting it into a tax-deductible donation to the museum by emailing [email protected].
- While the Walt Disney Family Museum is closing its doors again, they will continue to offer virtual programming, including the upcoming week-long celebration of Walt Disney’s birthday.
