Founded in 1993 by two Austin-area magicians, the camp teaches magic, juggling, puppetry, and other variety arts.
Recently, the camp provided a "day care" camp for attendees of the Texas Association of Magicians' 2010 convention, held in Austin,[5] a booth at the first annual Austin Street Magic Festival,[6] in addition to providing volunteers to assist with both events.
[8] Additionally, the magic camp can be found at a variety of family-friendly events in the Austin area, such as Waterloo park's 5th annual Ice Cream Festival.
The camp's staff are exclusively former team members who completed five years in the Youth Leader Training Academy.
[12] An invitation to participate in the Youth Leader Training Academy is extended to each camper once they reach 13 years of age.
