The Walt Disney Family Museum will be putting on a live performance with recent Emmy Award Winner Alan Menken online on Thursday, August 6th to benefit The Walt Disney Family Museum’s At-Promise Youth Animation Academy initiative.
Here are the details from their website.
Join us for a musical and storytelling experience with Oscar®-, Grammy®-, Emmy®–, Tony®-, and Golden Globe®-winning composer and songwriter Alan Menken.
In our ticketed VIP chat, Up Close and Personal with Alan Menken, Alan and his long-time friend and collaborator, former Disney music executive Chris Montan, will reminisce about Alan’s inspiring career.
Then, join us for a free performance of Alan’s legendary Disney works, including “Under the Sea,” “A Whole New World,” and “Be Our Guest,” as well as classics from other films and Broadway plays. During the performance, Alan will be joined by special guest and friend Lin-Manuel Miranda.
This virtual event will benefit The Walt Disney Family Museum’s At-Promise Youth Animation Academy initiative—an educational program providing state-of-the-art animation training for young people experiencing economic and social displacement.
There is also a ticketed VIP Chat with Alan Menken available for $200.
You will need to register for either the paid or free event here.
Event proceeds support The Walt Disney Family Museum’s education programs, which provide arts and animation instruction to the next generation of creative talent. The proceeds will also support the museum’s initiatives to provide educational opportunities to under-resourced young people, including its newest initiative, the At-Promise Youth Animation Academy, an intensive animation-focused jobs-training program for high school students experiencing economic and social displacement.
