Costume Exhibits Currently running in Los Angeles
Limited term
D23 Presents Treasure of the Walt Disney Archives
At 12,000 square feet, this is the largest exhibition ever curated by the
Walt Disney Archives and the largest temporary exhibit ever housed at the
Reagan Library. From Oswald the Lucky Rabbit and Mickey Mouse to Captain
Jack Sparrow and Captain America, the exhibition features more than 500
artifacts from nearly nine decades of Disney history – over 50% of which
have never been seen by the public – including models, props, costumes,
set pieces and artwork from throughout Disney history.
Among the extraordinary Disney collectibles to be featured are:
Breathtaking props, costumes, and set pieces from recent Disney classics,
including the Pirates of the Caribbean films, Tim Burton’s Alice in
Wonderland, TRON: Legacy, National Treasure, and Captain America;
Props from classic Disney live-action productions, including Mary Poppins,
20,0000 Leagues Under the Sea, The Absent-Minded Professor, The Shaggy Dog,
Babes in Toyland, Bedknobs and Broomsticks, and more;
The original script, written by Walt Disney, for Mickey Mouse’s first
cartoon, Steamboat Willie;
A faithful recreation of Walt’s formal office from the Walt Disney
Studios in Burbank, Calif., including original furnishings and many of his
personal items;
Hand-drawn artwork and hand-sculpted models used in the production of
some of the most beloved Disney animated film classics ever created,
including Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Pinocchio, Fantasia, Bambi, and
Sleeping Beauty;
Costume Exhibit running regularly in LA
Arclight Cinema's Costume Exhibits
The Arclight Cinemas in Hollywood and Sherman Oaks put up rotating
displays of movie costumes and props from films they are currently showing.
The Arclight's website does not
keep the costumes listed on the website... but if you sign up for their
newsletter they often mention which costumes are there.... sometimes.
Costumes are normally only there for a few weeks... but you get a close up
look of some of the hottest media costumes out there.... and they allow
photographs! (Yea!) Lighting varies from OK to really lousy.
Sometimes they are in cases, but some are not. It's well worth bringing a
small still cam that likes low light for some great one-time-chance shots.
 | Please share any pics with the whole group over on
F-Costume . |
