Toronto: Chung & Slim lecture [Feb 20]

From IBM Ring 17:

Chung has been a magician for over two decades with a love for close-up and cards. Though he's mostly stayed out of the spotlight, he has played a big part in crafting the Montreal magic scene into what it is today.

...

Slim is the founder of the Slim Card Co. In 2012, after meeting with a retired Las Vegas hustler who showed him the works on card trimming, he started making gaff playing cards and dice for magicians who needed that little extra special for their performances.

...

Their work has appeared in the UK magazine Operandi, and they were both featured in Issue 1 of Conundrum.

You won't want to miss this one. As we were organizing this event, Chung said to us recently, “I don't want to give full details because like a magic show, we like to build a little mystery into the thing.” Shhhhhhhh!

Calgary: Wit & Wizardry with Ryan Pilling and Lori Gibbs [Feb 19]

Tickets at Magic Tickets.

 

From the January 27th Facebook post by Ryan Pilling:

Here's the deal, you can show up at the next Wit & Wizardry - Comedy Magic Cabaret in a dreadful mood. You can grumble about our free parking, use bad language with our box office volunteer, and be a right miserable bugger. I'll allow it this time, because I'm about to release the secret weapon...
