Launched as a partnership between Van Eaton Galleries and private collection Richard [Kraft](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sauceographs), this expansive new Disney pop-up will be completely free to the public and functions as a family-friendly, interactive museum centered around the history of Disney theme parks.
