Science is key to understanding what's going on in a magic show, but so is the art of performance. In Magic, visitors can explore the magical arts for themselves when they visit the Magician's Training Academy.

At the Magicians' Training Academy guests learn and practice simple close-up magic, based on math and psychology principles. We've made these same tricks available here on the web for you to download and try at home. Using cards, coins, or cups, learn any one of four close-up illusions created by magician Harry Blackstone Jr.
