Walt Disney to speak in Kansas City
Walt Disney will be brought back to life next Wednesday for a speaking engagement. On January 23rd at 6:30 pm, the Kansas City Public Library will host An Evening with Walt Disney. Local historian Dr. Bill Worley will play Disney in character, and probably will talk about Disney’s experiences in Kansas City. The event is free, but reservations are recommended. The event is in association with the interactive Once Upon a Time fairy tale exhibit on display at the central library.
By the way, did you know that we’ve had two local people write books about Disney over the years? Dan Viets wrote one in 1992 and Steven Watts also wrote one in 2001.
