Program Description

Event Details

Who knew that an orange and walnut grove in Anaheim would become one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world? Walt Disney originally wanted to create a park themed to his most famous character, Mickey Mouse. Join us for this special presentation by author (and librarian!) Susan Gibberman on how Disneyland developed from a simple idea into an entertainment empire with theme parks all over the world.
