School for Scoundrels - MAR 7 & 8, 2026

This workshop is open to ALL AMA members, Magic University Students, and magic aficionados ages 18 and up. Registration includes a brunch meal each day during service. Attendees must attend both days to participate. No partial or rebooking of enrollment.

The Magic Castle® has offered The School for Scoundrels to its members since 1996. This unique 2-day course teaches the history, theory, technique, and application to the magic of the ancient street swindles: the Shell Game, Three-Card Monte, and Fast and Loose.

Over the last ten years, Chef Anton has been carrying on the tradition of offering the class to all scoundrel enthusiasts.

All participants receive 20% discounts on all School for Scoundrels products, and upon completion, each person gets a framed "Certificate of Scamology" as well as an exclusive S4S Pin.  For S4S information contact Chef Anton at   chefanton@chefanton.com

Late cancellations and requests for transfers or deferments after the seven cancellation/transfer deadline will result in a Magic Castle credit for Magic University offerings (adult and/or kids classes or Specialty classes) within the calendar year in which courses are offered.
