When You Join The International Brotherhood Of Magicians...
You'll walk into a world of entertainment, fellowship and fun. You'll be part of a network of nearly 15,000 magicians who meet at local meetings, international Conventions and communicate through the prestigious "Linking Ring" magazine.
The IBM, founded in 1922 by Len Vintus, Gene Gordon and Don Rogers, is the world's largest fraternity for amateur and professional magicians, magic enthusiasts and collectors of magic apparatus. The organization, governed by elected officers and a board of trustees, is headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri, USA.
Rings (local groups) allow you to gather monthly with local or visiting magicians to practice the newest magical effects or discuss the latest topics in our art. Enjoy lectures and demonstrations from professional magicians who travel the magic-club circuit. These leaders in the field teach magic that's on the cutting edge and often sell their own effects, books and videos. From other members, you'll learn about magic's rich history.
There are more than 300 Rings world-wide. Rings are located in most of the world's major cities. Those who have been accepted into the international organization may apply for Ring membership. Applications are voted on for approval by Ring members. International and local memberships are open to anyone 12 years of age or older who have a sincere interest in the art of magic.
