Maybe the Art of Disney building will become restrooms?

Actually sounds like a great spot for a Disney gallery. Hope it’s open by the holidays.

agree love the disney galleries, was a big fail they removed it from the studios along with other shops. Anyway this location is probably much larger than the current one in the marketplace? Although the current one is a fairly good size I thought.

My favorite stop at DS. I'm glad to see it moving to a more prominent location.

I think I recall seeing that the Hanes T-shirt place was closing as well. Which might mean something planned for the entire unit?

Fingers crossed for more Marvel, Pixar and Star Wars art, which is really lacking on the current store.

Spoke to Disney artist, Greg McCullough the other day and he said that he's moving into a store at Disney Springs - so it sounds like this will be it. He's bringing some of his original artwork to the gallery, including some ginormous pieces. He said it should be open by November, but didn't ask for an exact date at the time.

Tenants come and go in the Disney Mall.. er.. I mean, Disney Springs, but as the landlord, Disney always WIN$$

I assume this is moving Art of Disney into a bigger space? I don't think I ever went into LittleMissMatched.

Art of Disney is a must for DS IMO.

'The Art of Disney Presents Greg McCullough' to open in the former Little Mismacthed store for the holidays

An Art of Disney store for one artist? Wow.

Disney can't find a tenant to move in and they don't want it empty over the holidays. It would be interesting to know what kind of deal Greg got! Is it rude to ask him? lol

When I spoke to him, it sounds like Disney commissioned (contracted?) him to do art for them. Then he just stuck around because his art sold well enough to do more. I may be off a bit on this though...

We said the mouse must be paying you quite a bit to do this art (as a joke!) and he responded with "enough to keep me down in Orlando". That was 4-5ish years ago, when he planned on only doing it for another 3. Obviously plans changed!

He's a great guy and I'm glad he's getting more recognition.

Fun fact: He originally did a giant version of his "Dream it, Do it" in one of the houses in Celebration (believe it was there). Then after that he got permission to sell it as a regular print/giclee/poster in the parks.
