New for this event onlyThis is one of our favorite events, because we get to spend quality time with one of the great psychic entertainers of our time, Ross Johnson.  Ross always delights us with his powerful presentations and in-depth knowledge. If you have not attended this event, you don’t know what you’re missing.

MindventionYou may also consider adding MINDvention to your Las Vegas travel plans.  This year's presenters include Magic & Mystery School Associate Dean Larry Hassand long-time Mystery Schooler and Magic & Meaning Presenter, Kenton Knepper.

MINDvention is a three day convention dedicated to exploring the Art of Mentalism. Not only do we feature a line-up of top performers and presenters, the people who attend the convention are a who's who of mentalism. Lectures, shows, panel discussions and a dealer's room jam packed with the latest and greatest props and effects, MINDvention is the place to be for anyone interested in sharing, learning and developing their skills.

In response to many requests, we are happy to present our seventh Master Class aimed exclusively at mentalists. Jeff McBride's Master Class is the premier program in contemporary magic where YOU and your performance take center stage in a safe and supportive setting.

At this Special Master Class all of the performances and all of the talks and breakout sessions will be on the subject of MENTALISM. Eugene and Jeff will share their thoughts on Mentalism for Magicians. And our Special Guest for the Class will be ROSS JOHNSON, perhaps the most successful corporate mentalist in the United States. This is a RARE appearance for Ross because he does not write books and rarely speaks to groups of mentalists. We are thrilled to be able to spend several days with him finding out what has made him so successful.

The McBride Master Class is limited to a small group of students. Although there is no pressure to perform, many students choose to present their act (or a magical piece they are working on) for one-on-one direction from Jeff and Eugene who are both committed to helping you attain new levels of excellence with your performance of mentalism.

If you are looking for detailed, personal instruction in an intimate and safe setting, consider attending a McBride Master Class, magic's most progressive learning experience.

The Master Class includes personal instruction videotaped feedback session. This is the only event in the world of magic that focuses on you and the performance of your magic. Those who choose not to perform are always amazed at how much they learn from experiencing McBride's Master Class process and especially from listening to the critiques of others.
