2009 Summer Program

Exactly 100 years ago, A.C. Gilbert graduated from Yale. Rather than practice medicine (for which he trained,) he practiced magic. He founded the Mysto Magic Company with John Petrie. Gilbert went on to build Erector Sets and other learning toys, but he never lost his love for the discipline and art of magic. Construct your own magic show with traditional card coin and silk tricks. Build a carrying case to keep your secrets. Practice and perform your art.
Consulting magician: Stephen Latham.
