Jack is an accomplished magician, helped to raise funds by putting on fabulous magic show for friends and family! Inspired by his father, Daniel Schwartz, a nephrologist at St. Paul’s hospital. Jack chose to donate the proceeds from his show to the BC & Yukon Branch of The Kidney Foundation in support of vulnerable kidney patients in BC/Yukon.
On this episode, you’ll meet this amazing young man, hear about what motivated his philanthropic and be treated to a performance of some of Jack’s magic tricks.
Meet Jack Schwartz, one of the younger members of the Vancouver Magic Circle, IBM Ring #92. He was just featured in this nearly thirty minute program, performing magic and doing interviews. He's not only a Magician, but a Philanthropist for raising $2,600.00 for the Kidney Foundation by producing his own magic show.
I love that he mentions the International Brotherhood of Magicians, and our local Ring, and was delighted to be included in his list of mentors along with his Father and Rod Boss. We have a wonderful community of magicians in the lower mainland and Jack is a fine example. Kudos to you Jack on a job well done! *Daniel Schwartz, you can be rightfully proud! 😉
This Thursday , get your virtual ticket to avoid disappointment. A virtual lecture by Naathan Phan, from Masters of Illusion, as well as America’s Got Talent, and Wizard Wars. He’ll be sharing his knowledge with us , as well as some deals and discounts open only to lecture attendees. It will be a fun time!
What an honour to be named “2021 Stage Magician of the Year” by the Vancouver Magic Circle, IBM Ring #92, one of Canada’s oldest and largest magic clubs.
After a multi-year hiatus from competing while producing conventions and lectures for our global IBM magic community, it feels great to showcase some of my own original creations.
Congratulations to all my fellow competitors for a great evening of strong magic, and honourable mentions to 2nd Place Rod Chow (soon to be at the helm of the The Society of American Magicians!) and 1st Place Junior Stage winner Gabriella Lester

Join the 2018 Children's Magician of the Year, Graham Kita, and five amazing magic competitors as they perform to win your vote for the 2020 title of Children’s Magician of the Year!
Since 1960, the Vancouver Magic Circle, now Canada's largest magic club, has held an annual show featuring some of the finest children's entertainers in western Canada. These magicians are vying for the honour of being titled Children's Magician of the Year, the winner being selected by popular vote of the audience. Due to the pandemic and our desire to keep everyone safe we're going virtual. That doesn't mean you won't be a part of the fun though. This show is all about entertaining families while we stay safe at home! What better day to do it than on election day in BC!
Past winners have included Shawn Farquhar (5 times), Mike Norden (3 times), and Graham Kita (3 times) who will be hosting this year's awesome show.
For the first time ever the show will be presented virtually so the magic will happen right in your own home!
