Thanks Michelle for keeping us updated about upcoming events. I’m wondering if it is possible to order the new print of David E. Doss. We have 3 of his prints already and I love the new one. Since we only get to Walt Disney World a few times a year it sure would be nice to get some of the artists prints from home. Thanks Ron
What are Disneyland resort’s events? I’m going there on the 10th and can’t find any Limited Time Magic.
Hi Rochelle, take a look at the following link for the list of all of the events that will be taking place at the Disneyland Resort. https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2013/09/october-merchandise-events-at-the-disneyland-resort/. I’m not sure if you are going to be around on October 12, but we have two great events taking place that day, the first with the designers of HARVEYS seatbeltbags and the second with Author and Golden Globe-Winner, Chris Colfer. Hope you can make it. As for Limited Time Magic offerings, those details will probably be released closer to the date.
@Jennie – Dave Bossert will be at the Disneyana store in Disneyland next week Saturday Oct 5 from 9-11 to sign his book about Roy E Disney.
Thanks Leslie! @Jennie, hope that Leslie’s mention of the Dave Bossert book signing at the Disneyland Resort helps.
These look like great events. We purchased art pieces by Tim Rogerson and Larry Dotson at D23 in August. We absolutely love seeing our “All Their Wicked Ways” villains every time we walk down the hallway. My awesome husband installed automated art lighting that turns on whenever we are in the area of our Disney gallery. It makes such a huge difference to have it lighted.
The Roy Dsiney book sounds terrific. Hope he will be at DL for a signing.
