Holiday Gift Ideas from Marty Sklar's Foundation: Ryman Arts

[Mouse Skywalker]

Greetings Everyone: I just received an announcement from the Ryman Arts Foundation (Marty Sklar's Charity), and I thought people here might be interested in it. They are having an sale on art prints by Disney Imagineering Legend Herb Ryman and other Disney artists. There are some very cool prints in here, and all proceeds benefit the non-profit foundation.

Here's the press release from Ryman Arts:

Take advantage of very special reduced prices for vintage limited edition signed prints by Herbert D. Ryman and other Disney-affiliated artists, originally produced in the 1960s and 70s to raise money for art scholarships for students. Now you can support students at Ryman Arts with your purchase of these beautiful prints. These discounted prices are only available until December 31, 2010.

If you want to see the prints, you can check them out via this link below.

In case you don't remember, Herb Ryman was the Disney artist who sketched the original map of Disneyland over a weekend with Walt Disney himself watching over his shoulder. You can find out more about the Disney Legend here.

Ryman Arts also has a gorgeous book full of Herb Ryman's art called "A Brush With Disney", and you can find that on the RymanArts site as well. Might make great holiday gifts for Disney fans out there.
