Walt Disney was the Ultimate Dreamer. After creating a bevy of beloved characters such as Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Pluto, & Goofy and featured them in award-winning cartoons, Walt set his sights on something bolder and grander: he set upon the talk of producing the very first feature length animated motion picture: Snow White & the Seven Dwarfs. Labeled Disney’s Folly by his critics in 1937, Walt pushed the boundaries of story-telling and hand-drawn animation resulting in a classic fable that is as enchanting and entertaining today as it was over eight decades ago.

Open to all.
