The Society of American Magicians
Assembly 72
Sacramento Area Magicians
Sacramento Area Magicians Assembly #72 is a chartered member of the Society of American Magicians.
We are dedicated to promoting magic as a performing art in the Sacramento Area. Club members meet monthly to perform in front of their peers in a supportive setting. Members share their knowledge and experience in magic and performing techniques. The club invites well known magicians from around the world, who deliver lectures throughout the year.
The Society of American Magicians, founded on May 10, 1902 in Martinka's famous magic shop in New York City, New York, is the oldest and most prestigious magical society in the world. For over a century it has promoted the ideals shared by Kellar, Houdini, Thurston and over 30,000 others world-wide who have held membership in the society. These ideals include the elevation of the Art of Magic, the promotion of harmony among magicians, and the opposition of the unnecessary public exposure of magical effects.
The S.A.M. offers the opportunity to unite and associate with leaders in the World of Magic - not only professionals, but with amateurs, manufacturers, magic dealers, book authors and magic collectors. Through its monthly publications, annual conventions, and with over 250 "Assemblies" throughout the world, the S.A.M. provides the necessary forum for the advancement of magic through discussions, lectures, research, performances, and exchange of magic secrets within the magic community. To promote these endeavors the S.A.M. presents awards and fellowships in recognition of outstanding achievement in the Art of Magic.
If you have a serious interest in the Art of Magic then you, too, can follow in the footsteps of Harry Houdini, Harry Blackstone, Jr., Siegfried & Roy, Lance Burton and David Copperfield by joining the most prestigious magical organization in the world - The Society of American Magicians.
We meet on the fourth Wednesday of every month (except November and December) at 7 PM. Prospective members and guests are welcome!
