Why You Might Want to Visit EPCOT's 2022 Festival of the Arts on 4 Specific Days

We might still be celebrating the Festival of the Holidays, but the start of the 2022 EPCOT International Festival of the Arts is just around the corner!

Festival of the Arts

We’ve already gotten some news about what things will be returning to the festival this year, a FULL list of the food booths you’ll be able to enjoy, and details about the Disney on Broadway concert series. But now we’ve gotten even more news about this festival, and it’s made for fans of a certain adorable orange Disney character.

Calling all Orange Bird fans! If you love this little bird, then you’ll want to stop by the WonderGround Gallery tent in World Showcase during the Festival of the Arts to check out some awesome art from Jerrod Maruyama. We’ve seen Maruyama’s work on various Disney items in the past and now he’s back with some new pieces! Recently, via Instagram, he shared a first look at one of 4 NEW pieces he’ll have at the Festival of the Arts! This one is themed to Orange Bird and is called “Little Orange World.”

It features Orange Bird in all kinds of adorable designs — this cutie is driving a car, painting an orange, sleeping, standing on a boat, and so much more! Seriously, how CUTE is Orange Bird?!!

You’ll be able to stop by and see him in EPCOT on those dates and get your pieces signed by him. So, if you want to get your unique piece of Orange Bird or other Maruyama artwork signed, consider scheduling your trip to fall on one of those 4 days!
