PROGRAM INFO:
While most people are familiar with seeing the word “Disney” onscreen, this program will take you backstage to the man behind the magic. Krawczewski’s presentation will travel through Walt Disney’s life story, starting with his idyllic childhood in Marceline, Missouri and culminating in his greatest triumph, Disneyland. Krawczewski will also explore common myths about Disney himself, why the movies have relevance to both children and adults, and hidden design features of the parks. Walt Disney’s life is a story of tenacity, escapism, and lessons that transcend generations. Emily Krawczewski is the Site Manager of the Washington County Heritage Center and has been studying Walt Disney for over a decade.
