One man’s vision can change the whole world. Through the characters he created, he enhanced the lives of people around the world, especially children. Dream, imagination, charm, entertainment and most of all, fun are the words that characterize when we hear words like “Disney” and “Mickey Mouse.”
When there is an exchange of such wonderful energy, there is a healing. Healing not in a sense of healing the sick, but healing to encourage us, to motivate us, to inspire us to move to a direction we all desire.
To celebrate and get a deep glimpse of his personal life journey and family life, The Walt Disney Family Museum was opened in San Francisco in the fall of 2009.
“My father’s name is probably one of the most well-known names around the world, but as the ‘brand’ or trade mark has spread, for many, the man has become lost,” said Diane Disney Miller, one of the Museum’s founders. “We are committed to telling the story of Walt Disney’s life, in his own words, and in the words of others who knew him well and worked with him. My father was very open and approachable, and in many conversations and interviews that were captured in audio, you will be able to hear in the galleries as you learn the story of his life.” It is a wonderful story. Dad himself loved to tell it. Thanks to the amazing work of many dedicated people, we are fortunate to be able to tell it here using the tools he worked with—art, music, film, and technology—to present an honest yet affectionate portrait of this amazing artist and man.”
Walt Disney, a great healer. Go visit The Walt Disney Family Museum
