Disney's Carthay Circle Restaurant Adds New Exhibit and Halloween Decorations
The Carthay Circle Restaurant and Lounge at Disney California Adventure has welcomed two new additions for visitors to enjoy. The main lounge on the ground floor now features an exhibit from the Walt Disney Archives, titled 'Walt Disney Archives Presents Capturing Life, Creating Character, The Art of Live-Action Reference'. This display showcases the extensive study of dogs conducted by animators and filmmakers while working on Lady and the Tramp in 1955. According to the sign on the display, this research began with the animators' own pets.
Also situated nearby is a Halloween tree, decorated with an orange string of lights and spirited ornaments. This festive touch brings the spirit of Halloween Time at the Disneyland Resort into the lounge.
The Carthay Circle Restaurant is inspired by the Carthay Circle Theatre in Los Angeles, where Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs premiered in 1937. It features Spanish Colonial Revival architecture and houses both a restaurant (upstairs) and a lounge (downstairs).
