Welcome to Free Magic Fun!
Later we found a local magic store – a wonderfully old and dark shop downtown. It was a glorious adventure when we would ride the bus downtown and hang out with the old magicians in the shop (please don’t tell our parents we were there ha ha). They would show us so much great stuff. A mentorship is so important in your magical education.
With the advent of online ordering, and YouTube, we lost both the brick and mortar magic stores, and the love of the library. Yes, the libraries are still around, but now most people go to YouTube to learn things. Local magic stores are much pretty a thing of the past as well. Everything is ordered online now, and we will not get the personal instruction that I grew up with.
Any new magician will not know what they are missing by not hanging out with the old guys. Well… I am now one of the old guys. So this website, and the associated YouTube channel, are meant to be a place for learning magic. It is NOT a magic reveal site or channel. This is the back room of the old magic store.
Blog posts are below, most have links to an associated YouTube video. Please feel free to browse all the categories, from the top menu. Be sure to check out our magic shop for some great items.
