Academy of Magical Arts (AMA) newsletters (1962 - 2026)

The Academy of Magical Arts (AMA), headquartered at the world-famous Magic Castle in Hollywood, California, has published member newsletters, bulletins, and event schedules since 1962. These archives serve as a definitive historical record of prestidigitation, magic conventions, and exclusive celebrity performances.

How to Access AMA Newsletters (1962 - 2026)

• Official Digital Archives: Current Magician and Associate members can access digitized newsletters, event programs, and historic documents directly through the The Magic Castle Member Portal.
• The Magic Magazine Connection: The AMA has been closely tied to Genii Magazine since its inception. All back issues of Genii (which contain major AMA announcements, fellowship awards, and member chronicles) are accessible for members on the Genii Magazine Site.
• Physical Archives: Hard copies of vintage AMA newsletters are housed securely at The William Larsen Sr. Memorial Library located inside the Magic Castle. Access is generally restricted to active AMA members and magic historians.
