New Portraits of Courage Exhibit Coming to American Adventure Pavilion at EPCOT
By Rikki
A brand new exhibit will be coming to EPCOT beginning June 9 at the American Adventure Pavilion! This exhibit will be called Portraits of Courage: A Commander in Chief’s Tribute to America’s Warriors.
About the Portraits of Courage Exhibit
This exhibit is from the George W. Bush Institute and it brings together more than 60 full-color portraits painted by President Bush of service members and veterans who have served the nation with honor since 9/11, and whom the President has come to know personally since leaving office.
Each painting is accompanied by the inspiring story of the veteran depicted. Guests who visit the exhibit will learn more about these military heroes’ journey including tales of valiant service on the battlefield, resilience in recovering from injury, and the continued leadership and contributions they make in their post-military careers. President Bush personally wrote each story of these veterans.
“Celebrating those who give so much to our country has been part of the fabric of The Walt Disney Company throughout our 100-year history,” said Josh D’Amaro, Chairman, Disney Experiences. “We’re grateful to the Bush Institute for allowing us to feature this special collection and share it with our guests.”
Additionally, the Portraits of Courage: A Commander in Chief’s Tribute to America’s Warriors exhibit includes information and resources created to support veterans and their families. This includes a resource called Check-In. Check-In allows veterans and their families to easily connect to no cost, high quality, mental and brain health care. To learn more about Check-In, visit www.veterancheckin.org.
The Portraits of Courage: A Commander in Chief’s Tribute to America’s Warriors will be at the Walt Disney World Resort for 12 months.
