Meet an Early Disney Imagineer Inside Walt Disney’s Storybook Mansion This Saturday
A special opportunity awaits this Saturday at 1 PM when Disney preservationist Dusty Sage is joined by early Disney Imagineer Tania McKnight Norris for a rare tour inside Walt Disney’s Storybook Mansion in the Hollywood Hills.
Tania worked with some of Disney’s legendary artists and will share stories from the early creative era of the company while guests explore the remarkable home where Walt Disney lived during one of the most defining chapters of his life.
🏠 Walk in Walt Disney’s Footsteps
Built in 1932, this enchanting storybook-style estate is where Walt raised his daughters, hosted legendary gatherings, and dreamed up many of the films and ideas that would shape generations.
Only on rare occasions can you go beyond the gates.
On this approximately 90-minute guided tour, guests explore both the interior and grounds of Walt’s private home, including:
• Walt’s personal screening room, where he previewed classics-in-the-making
• The charming Seven Dwarfs Cottage, a backyard playhouse Walt gifted his daughters in 1937
• Beautifully restored architectural details throughout the home and gardens
• Sweeping views of Los Angeles from this historic hillside estate
The home still feels remarkably alive with history. Walking its halls and gardens, it can feel as though Walt has simply stepped out for the afternoon.
This isn’t just a tour. It’s a rare invitation to stand where Walt stood, imagine what he imagined, and experience the creative spark that still lingers here.
