LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. (AP) — Walt Disney World will host dozens of portraits of military personnel and veterans from the nation’s painter-in-chief.
The George W. Bush Institute will lend 60 color portraits of the former US president to the Florida theme park. The military and veteran paintings will be on display for a year at Epcot’s American Adventure Pavilion starting next month.
Each painting is accompanied by a veteran biography written by the former president. The exhibit will also include information and resources created to support veterans and their families.
“I hope those who have the opportunity to view this special exhibit will also remember the leadership, service and sacrifice behind each of the painted heroes as well as the unique challenges our service members and their families face as they transition out of of the Army,” Ken said. Hersh, president and CEO of the George W. Bush Presidential Center.
