Walt Disney Museum announced

[ImaYoyo]

Someone asked a bit ago if there would ever be a Disney Museum. Here you go!

w This spring, the Walt Disney Family Foundation, a Presidio tenant since 2001, will begin rehabilitating the barracks in the Presidio's Main Post for use as the Walt Disney Family Museum and Library. The project will include a children's learning center with hands-on art programs, an extensive collection of artifacts and archival material, exhibits on animation and motion pictures, a research center for scholars, exhibits of art works influenced by Disney, a book store/gift shop, and a small café. The museum is expected to open to visitors in August 2009.

Eh, the OP didn't specify it was at WDW so no harm no foul. Worst case scenario, it should've gone into one of the other subforums, but they're read so less frequently than the top four, most people don't even think to post in them.

It's still disney related which flies here. Good bit of news, thanks.

It is good news. I too wish it was at WDW, as not to sure when I will be able to get out to CA to visit it.

This is actually exciting.

Who else is planning a trip to San Francisco in 2009... :lookaroun

Yep, I'm excited about this museum but not about its location. DTD (either in CA or FL) would be my choice. AAANNNDDD...if there is ever a decision to remove CoP from MK, my hope is that they'd relocate it to a place adjacent to this museum.
