Red Wine-braised Beef Short Rib at Epcotā€™s Odyssey Center

And don't miss the Red Wine-braised Beef Short Rib with parsnip puree, broccolini, baby tomatoes and balsamic glaze at Pastoral Palate.

Kids of all ages will want to engage in Figmentā€™s Brush with the Masterā€™s Scavenger Hunt.

On this journey throughout Epcotā€™s World Showcase, guests will help Figment learn all about art.

To get started, purchase a map and stickers at Creations Shop, Port of Entry, or World Traveler.

Then, search for Figment hiding inside art inspired by famous works at each World Showcase pavilionā€”just look for the Figment-themed picture frame.

Every time guests find Figment, they add the corresponding sticker to the pavilion on the map.

Once the journey is complete, return the map to Disney Traders or World Traveler for an artful little keepsake! Redemption is valid through Feb. 19 or while supplies last.

The EPCOT International Festival of the Arts will be here before we know it! Start planning today.
