Cornell alumni and guests are invited to an exclusive experience at the world famous Magic Castle! Built in 1908, the authentic Victorian mansion has been home to The Academy of Magical Arts since 1963 and is the world’s most exclusive and renowned private club for magicians and supporters of the art of magic. Experience the magic for yourself with fellow Cornellians over drinks and hors d’oeuvres, accompanied by CCLA Board Member and Magic Castle member Jeffrey Cowan ’86. Jeffrey is a former professional magician-turned-trial lawyer who used to headline at the Castle while performing his way through law school. Jeffrey will serve as the group’s host and guide for the evening with the goal of ensuring that we have the opportunity to see as much as possible – including some of the club’s hidden secrets.
