What do you want to be when you grow up? That’s the infamous question every kid, of every age, always gets. Growing up, I loved films, loved to draw and I loved Disney, so being an animator seemed like the perfect fit! While my career path didn’t necessarily lead me to feature animation, I have had wonderful opportunities to see and do things I never thought possible, including the opportunity to learn more about the fascinating processes of animation, like Ink & Paint!
What I love even more is that our talented team of Ink & Paint artists at Disney’s Hollywood Studios continue to keep the tradition of Ink & Paint alive, sharing a traditional process with Disney fans, old and new.
The newest limited edition 1,000 piece titled Waltz in the Park is set to release on March 16 at Studios Animation Gallery and features a delicately and precisely hand-painted Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse dressed in the iconic costumes of Belle and the Beast as they prepare for their royal entrance into Beast’s Castle.
Waltz in the Park will be available in the following formats, including framing options and retails:
- Unframed Cel – $150
- Black Frame and Cel – $240
- Black Frame with Pin and Cel – $270
- Black Frame with Pin, Postcard and Cel – $280
- Gold Frame and Cel – $310
If you’re wondering what the pin that accompanies a couple of these formats looks like, wonder no more.
For those of you in the area, several of the Ink & Paint artists associated with this piece will actually be on hand for a special appearance and signing March 16 from 10 a.m. – 1 p.m. and 2 p.m. – 5 p.m. at Studios Animation Gallery in Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
But if you find yourself unable to join us or you’re out of town, don’t worry, Walt Disney Event Services is currently taking pre-orders for the Waltz in the Park cel. Contact Walt Disney Event Services at 407-827-7600, Monday – Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. But keep in mind, all orders must be placed no later than Friday, March 15, 2013, at 12:00 p.m. EST.

Don’t let this new cel “waltz” away… instead, let it dance its way into your heart and into your home.

Will Disney Event Services be able to take orders for the pins along with the cells? Thanks!
Hi Sarah! The pin is only available in conjunction with purchasing the cel in the following formats: Black Frame with Pin and Cel for $270 or the Black Frame with Pin, Postcard and Cel for $280.
Will we be able to buy the cell online? I would love one but live in the UK
Davina, unfortunately the cel won’t be available to purchase online, but if you are able to call our Walt Disney Event Services team, they can definitely help process the order.
Is the PIN a LE 1000 also, or, is it a lower edition number?
