Greetings S.A.M. Assembly 12 Members and Friends!
We just wanted to remind folks that we usually take the summer off, so there will not be an official meeting in June, July, or August. We’re thinking about doing some informal online hangouts during the summer, though. In the meantime, here are some things to look forward to and check out.
Royal Road
Starting in September, following a quick business meeting and performances, we’ll have a 15–20 minute book club for those who are interested. We’ll start with the first chapter (“The Overhand Shuffle”) of The Royal Road to Card Magic. If you don’t already have a copy, pick one up before then!
Open Mic Magic Night at the Midway Saloon
Steven Paul Carlson asked us to let you know about a magic night open mic that’s starting on either the first or last Tuesday night of the month, 8–10 PM. Steven will set up the acts for the evening and introduce them, acting as an MC. Depending on how many participants there are, each will have approximately 10 minutes to perform. Participants and guests get in for free, no cover charge. Age 21 and over. Please email Steven (spc@legendarycreations.com) if you are interested, and he’ll give you more information.
The Midway Saloon is located on University and Snelling Ave, across from Allianz Stadium in St. Paul. Steven Paul Carlson is performing bar magic there every Tuesday night from 7–9 PM
Penn & Teller at the Renaissance Festival
As you’ve likely heard, Penn & Teller will be at the Minnesota Renaissance Festival on August 16th. If you’re going and interested in meeting up, please let us know.
