University for swedish magicians

Postby Tom Stone » April 17th, 2014, 8:07 am

My pal Johan Ståhl have been lobbying for 4 years in order to create an university education for magicians. All that work and energy have finally come to fruition.

In october there will be a pilot test; a 6 week university level course. This is very exciting!
