Olaf Draws kept teaching guests how to sketch at Disney’s Hollywood Studios on Friday, September 25, but Olaf sat this one out.

WDW News Today reported from The Magic of Disney Animation that drapes covered the Olaf figure and his desk while the show ran in what Cast Members called B-Mode. The prerecorded animator lesson continued. The show paused at the point when Olaf normally presents his drawing.

Cast Members told the outlet that the B-Mode arrangement would remain in place for the rest of September 25. No reason or return timing was given.
