Jamey's Street Magic Apprenticeship: Winter Break
More winter break camps >
Taught by the spetacular Jamey Proudstar Espinoza!
From the deepest inner mind to the outer limits, this camp challenges your perception of reality. The art of engaging or entertaining a crowd by the illusions of mentalism, prestidigitation, conjuring and teleportation offers an epic appeal that dates back to the dawn of time.
Throughout history Street Magic was performed for various reasons. Not only do we begin our training in the art of street magic, but we shall also explore its rich and often colorful history.
Sreet magic has been used as a form of busking to ply a trade for skilled artisans, as a con for many nefarious purposes and even as a form of post modern theater.
Join master magician Jamey Proudstar Espinoza in a truly fantastical journey into bedazzling world of the street magician.
