Arlington Museum will present "Heroes & Villains: The Art of the Disney Costume" and "All That Glitters: The Crown Jewels of the Walt Disney Archives." Both exhibitions are presented in partnership with the Walt Disney Archives. This will be the first time that the two collections will be exhibited at the same time by a single venue. Together, they feature more than 300 pieces spanning over 65 years.

Through original items including ball gowns, sorcerers’ capes, a pirate’s jacket, and iconic glass slippers, "Heroes & Villains: The Art of the Disney Costume" celebrates the artistry of some of Hollywood’s designers. Included in the exhibition are costumes created by Academy Award® winners Colleen Atwood, Sandy Powell, and Tony Walton, as well as Emmy® winner Ellen Mirojnick and Emmy nominees Eduardo Castro and Penny Rose.

"All That Glitters: The Crown Jewels of the Walt Disney Archives" will feature prized pieces of jewelry and accessories. From crowns and tiaras to watches, rings and necklaces, this exhibition gives visitors the rare opportunity to see these jewels up-close, while gaining an understanding of how integral they are to completing the ensemble and informing the character.

The exhibitions will remain on display through March 23, 2025.
