With Olaf Draws! opening, will this be replacing the Animation Experience at Animal Kingdom? I haven’t really been able to find any answers (in my admittedly brief search).

I think the Animation Experience at AK is closing along with Petting Zoo to make way for Bluey.
I’m not sure if the vetinary procedures viewing will also stop.

tl:dr copied from late in the article
Since Olaf can’t quite draw on his own, he turns to the expertise of some legendary Disney Animation artists whose pre-recorded guidance brings the class to life. Together, they guide you step-by-step through the creative process, sharing tips, techniques, and stories straight from the studio as you learn how beloved Disney Animation characters come to life.

Yes. There will no longer be an Animation Experience in AK. Or the petting zoo.

This will still be there along with the animals along that wall by the viewing area.

Thanks!
I knew the vetinary centre would remain. I just wasn’t sure if guests would still be able to see them at work.

That is unfortunate, but is pretty much what I anticipated. It seemed like an obvious cost saving measure.

Not sure it’s cost cutting. They want to add Bluey and an Australian animals area.
The DHS is a replacement, albeit using recordings of animators.

It seems rather geared toward kids.
Maybe animators are going to be thin in the parks cuz they’re all working on something else?
