Discover Disney's Underrated Delight: The International Festival of the Arts at Epcot

The International Festival of the Arts at Walt Disney World's Epcot is often overlooked, but it's a must-visit during the off-season. Not only is it less crowded and easier on your wallet, but it offers a fantastic array of art galleries. If you're a film art print enthusiast, this event is your chance to snag some officially licensed pieces early.

Here's a round-up of our favorite art releases this year. Some of these pieces will be available across Walt Disney World resorts, Disneyland Resort, and Disney Cruises. However, some are exclusive to the festival, like the intriguing "Skeleton Crew" Neel piece. And yes, Star Wars fans, you'll find plenty of prints featuring your beloved characters.

Other fandoms represented include Marvel Studios' X-Men '97, Frozen, Disney Princess, and Kingdom Hearts. Artists will be in attendance for signings on select dates.

For those on the West Coast, don't fret. Some of the art will also be unveiled during the Food & Wine Festival at Disney California Adventure. Plus, some featured artists will be there for signings as well.
