Spring is most certainly in the air at the Walt Disney World Resort and April is blooming with merchandise events.
The Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival is going strong and fans can still pick up commemorative merchandise at kiosks around the park. Also, through April 6 Fairy Houses are being built by artists on the promenade around World Showcase.
Also at Epcot during the Flower & Garden Festival, representatives from Rinse Bath and Body Co. will be presenting a product showcase through May 18. The products are all made by hand in small batches, and it’s a great way to take home the scents of the Festival.
From April 21 until May 4, representatives from Kumquat Growers and Tropical Blossom Honey Co. will be at the Festival from 11 a.m. until 9 p.m. each day to showcase their products.
Precious Moments collectors can meet doll designer Linda Rick at the American Adventure Pavilion on April 4-6. And, artist David E. Doss is scheduled to appear daily on the World Showcase promenade from April 7 through April 20.
Over at Downtown Disney, artist Greg McCullough returns to the Art of Disney on April 9-13, and he’ll be at the Art of Disney in Epcot on April 23-27.
Larry Dotson will be meeting fans and showcasing his artwork at the Art of Disney in Epcot on April 10-13, and in Downtown Disney on April 21-25.
And on Earth Day, Disney’s Animal Kingdom has special artist appearances scheduled, but no other information is available at this time.
