Art is a huge part of how Disney's story began when Walt and his original team of animators created the work of art we know today. Art celebrates different ways people can express themselves and gives an opportunity to tell stories that connect all of us. Now, the Disney Parks Blog has shared that Disney Springs Art Walk, A Canvas of Expression will be launching later this month.
What's Happening:
- The Disney Springs Art Walk will feature local artists and those from around the globe to create murals that will fit the walls with color, emotion, and culture.
- Guests we'll be able to see the work up close and experience the individual voice and style of the artists.
- This experience will be at Town Center in Disney Springs.
- Over time, more work will be added and the Disney Springs Art Walk will grow.
- Throughout the year, guests will have the opportunity to see different pieces added, and the space will continue to evolve as more voices are welcome to share their work.
