From their site: Dreams Come True showcases original artwork from legendary Disney animated films, including Snow White, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, The Little Mermaid and Beauty and the Beast, and will feature a children's section celebrating Disney's connections with jazz music and the Crescent City. The artworks, on loan from the Walt Disney Studio Animation Research Library, will be accompanied by film clips to demonstrate how individual sketches and paintings lead to a finished celluloid masterpiece. Organized by the Walt Disney Animation Research Library and the New Orleans Museum of Art, this once-in-a-lifetime exhibition, which cannot be seen anywhere else, is set to coincide with the premier of Disney's upcoming animated feature, The Princess and the Frog, set in New Orleans during the 1920s Jazz Age.
Very cool- we saw the trailer a few weeks ago and I was showing the girls the pictures of the real St. Louis Cathedral. ; It shows up in the movie inside and out. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VimbxQZVHHo[/youtube]
I'm dying to get back there- I have only been the one time but what an amazing place. ; About the same drive from here.
It's a much longer drive from here, but I do want to get there one day. ; Thanks for the photo's I like them a lot.
I was there for a long weekend and walked in and snapped a few pictures- figuring I would be back to take more later. ; Then every time I came back it was closed for weddings so I never got anymore inside pictures. ; It really is beautiful.
