The Hand & The Eye: Author Visit and Magic Show

Join authors Jennifer Schneider and Cayley Tull for a reading of their book The Hand & the Eye: Olive's Discovery. When Olive steps into The Academy at The Hand & The Eye, she learns that magic is not just about illusions and tricks—it is about finding your place, discovering your strengths and daring to dream big. The authors are thrilled to feature Michael Ammar, Master Magician and Educator, during their visit. He will share his mind-boggling close-up magic, making small, everyday objects like coins, cards and rubber bands feel impossibly magical right under the audience's nose!
