You're Going to do a Double Take When You See What Disney Put on Display in EPCOT

It’s ridiculously easy to fall in love in Disney World. (Warning: I can guarantee you that I am not taking this in the direction that you’re thinking.)

EPCOT

I mean, we all melt a little bit when Flynn Rider smirks at us during the Festival of Fantasy Parade, or when Kylo Ren singles you out of a crowd in Galaxy’s Edge. And I certainly can’t be the first person to have a crush on a character from a Disney pre-show (I miss Dr. Seeker from DINOSAUR every day). But now, there’s a new hearthrob on the scene, and you’ll never guess where he’s hiding!

You see, recently Disney replaced the artwork inside The American Adventure building after the Portraits of Courage exhibit ended. We stopped by to check out the new decor and were honestly gobsmacked by what we encountered.

There’s new artwork!

WHO is this diva giving Fabio a run for his money?! He looks like he should be on the cover of a cheesy romance novel, not hanging inside a history exhibit at a theme park! And he 100% knows how fabulous he is with that pose and the whole no-shirt-just-overalls look.

Umm…WHO is this?!

Speaking of which, why is he shirtless when all the other men in the painting are fully clothed? I mean, I don’t blame him with biceps like that, but it’s a little distracting. I know a lot of bachelorette parties come to EPCOT, but this is still a family park, folks. 😉

He knows exactly what he’s doing here.

Tbh though, we’re not really mad about his inclusion in this exhibit. Do we need to name him? Give him a full backstory like the citizens of the Tiny Train Town a few doors down in Germany? Pretty soon he’s going to have a fan club, we just know it. And from the looks of that smolder, he knows it too.

The classic artwork is back inside this pavilion!

And if you’re actually curious about this artwork, it was painted by Clem Hall in 1982 and is titled “Building a Future Together.” It’s part of a group of paintings that were originally done by Imagineers when EPCOT was built. The artwork and exhibits inside this building change from time to time, so it’s fun to stop inside and see what they have on display during your visit.

American Adventure Pavilion

Also inside The American Adventure, you’ll find the attraction of the same name, which is a theater show detailing important moments in American history. But one of our favorite reasons to visit this pavilion building is to watch the Voices of Liberty, an acapella group that sings classic tunes and Disney songs. See, even if you’re from the U.S., there are plenty of reasons to still visit this pavilion during your EPCOT day!
