Minooka Branch

Meeting Room - Minooka Branch

Come hear about Disney's vital--but now forgotten--contribution to the war effort as a prolific producer of hundreds of educational, industrial, and propaganda films during the Second World War.

Although the Disney Studio was the toast of Hollywood animation in the 1930s, its fortunes fell quickly on the eve of WWII. Come hear about Disney's vital--but now forgotten--contribution to the war effort as a prolific producer of hundreds of educational, industrial, and propaganda films during the Second World War--an effort which not only helped save the country but also the studio that would go on to be an American cultural institution.  Registration required.

Registration required for EACH person attending. Kids under the age of 10 are not permitted in adult programs.
