Meet the Miniaturist: The Walt Disney Family Museum

Published 2021-09-01
We were treated to a talk by Chris Mullen, the Senior Marketing & Communications Coordinator from The Walt Disney Family Museum in San Francisco. Chris is a storyteller, content creator and an important part of the Guest Experience team at the museum.

I had a livestream with Chris who joined from the miniatures gallery at the museum which exhibits Walt Disney's collection of miniatures. We learned about his life and passion for miniatures and how they influenced the remarkable work he created which helped him become an American legend. We saw photos of Disney's miniatures and talked about Disneylandia, the early concept of what would later become the iconic DisneyLand.

This was super!

  • I didn't know that Mr. Disney was a talented miniturist, but it really fits well with his imagination and dream worlds. I would love to see these IRL. This museum is going on my bucket list! Is there a book about his miniatures ?
