Your generous support helps ensure Walt Disney’s Laugh-O-gram building will be preserved in history and give aspiring animators and storytellers the foundation they need to start a career in Kansas City just like Disney himself so many years ago.

We are proud to announce that the Missouri Development Finance Board voted in February 2023 to extend $500,000 in Missouri tax credits for contributions to Thank You Walt Disney, Inc

Take a Virtual Walkthrough of Multistudio’s vision of how the Laugh-O-gram building will be designed.

This is a self-navigated 360-degree tour of the plans for the interior of the building.  Use your mouse or your trackpad to redirect your viewpoint at any stop you make along the tour.  You can view that space (floor, ceiling, or walls) from any angle by making movements with your mouse or trackpad. 

You will be starting at the main door on the northeast corner of the building.   If you move to your left, you will see the ramp entranceway along the east wall that will be the recognition wall for contributors.  By moving to the right, you will see the first white circle on the floor to move you into the welcome area of the facility.  The white circles are new stations to move you along the tour by clicking on them that allows you to stop to take a 360-degree view of that space in the building.  By clicking on the folded map icon on the lower left of the screen, it will show you where you are on that floor. 

At any of the white circle “stops”, a circled “i” at any of the stops indicates information on a potential exhibit.  When the white floor circles aren’t visible, you can navigate to any part of the building by clicking on the folded map icon in the lower right of your screen.  This opens a diagram of the first or second floor.  The yellow shading shows the area where you are currently located on that floor.  By clicking on any of the black circles on the map, you will be taken directly to that location in the 3D walkthrough for that floor.  

Circled doors on the first-floor west will take you into the theatre (to your left) or the training room (to your right).  Both rooms have camera icons with videos that show a Laugh-O-gram movie in the theatre, or an explanation of the training plans in the training room.  

To get to the second floor, start at the bottom of the stairs on the north, middle part of the building.  Click on the first black arrow on the steps to get to the landing, and the second black arrow to get up to the second floor.

This “tour” of the plans for the building are drafts of what the interior of the building will look like and how the building will be used.  We plan to add more exhibits and applications for entrepreneurs and training in the future.  

Our plans need resources.  We ask your help in our capital campaign to make this vision a reality.  Should we refer them to the pitch deck on the web page?

Have a good time “touring” the plans for the Laugh-O-gram building.
