“This kid is going places.”
– Lance Burton, International Star of Magic

Joshua Jay, one of magic’s most eclectic and accomplished rising stars, has a purpose: to show people that things aren’t always as they seem. And that’s important, because seeing things differently is where fascination, inspiration and hope come from. Through his performances blending sleight of hand, psychology and wit… through his photography, film and art… through his writing, lecturing and innovation… Joshua Jay challenges you to challenge your perceptions, because the secret is right in front of you.

Joshua Jay has performed and lectured in over 40 countries. He is an international award-winning magician, a critically-acclaimed author, a fine-art photographer and a monthly columnist for the largest independent magazine for magicians.

The Secret is right in front of you.

The lecture will teach effects using borrowed bills, a remote control, pocket change, cards, coins, and other objects. There will be close-up magic, stand-up magic, and even a mentalism effect. Several items will be work-shopped during the lecture, and everyone will be encouraged to fold bills or learn card sleights along with Joshua. The majority of items will be within the range of the beginner. Joshua is also very happy to take questions regarding any topics or tricks discussed in the lecture, his books, or his monthly column. Even if you have seen or read Joshua Jay's published material before, you’ve never seen a majority of his brand new effects.
