Animal Kingdom’s Party for the Planet will take place once again from April 20-22, 2019!
Animal Kingdom’s Tree of Life
The three-day celebration invites guests to “explore, engage and connect with the magic of nature” through special offerings around the park.

As the park’s annual Earth Day celebration, the event’s focus on nature begins right at the Oasis (at the park’s entrance) with the Disneynature Penguins display sculpture, created by the nonprofit organization WashedAshore.org.

Michelle, I don’t see the price of the print anywhere. Maybe check out his Instagram to see if that’s been asked and answered? He’s good about responding to questions people have. Click here for his Instagram.
Hello AJ, I see on disney website they say “A valid Walt Disney World Resort receipt is also required” for Art Signing with Disney Imagineer Joe Rohde. Does that mean I have to stay on property to get an autograph? Thanks!
Hello AJ! I see on Disney website it says “a valid WDW resort receipt is also required” for art signing with Joe Rohde. Does that mean I have to stay on property to be qualified for a wristband? Thanks!
Vera, our understanding is that the receipt is for the artwork you’ll purchase in order to get a bracelet to meet Joe.
