About The Event
Alchemy Class is about to begin! Magical Secrets are about to be shared!
Enter the Alchemy Laboratory of Ed the Wizard. Watch, volunteer, and learn as we perform vanishes, transfigurations, and other feats of magic with everyday items found at home. !
Alchemy Laboratory is where “Harry Potter meets real science.” We will use three of the four Classical Greek Elements, Earth, Wind, and Water, (sorry, no Fire). Using real science such as Bernoulli’s Principle, Electromagnetism, and Optical effects, learn how to defy gravity, move objects with your mind, change the properties of water, look through solid objects, and more!
Participants are challenged with questions about Alchemy, Scientific Principles, and their general knowledge of the physical world.
Volunteers help with each "experiment," or magic routine. They are then asked their thoughts as to how and why the effect worked, after which I explained the science, or magic, behind each effect.
Each workshop is about 45 minutes with a short Q&A afterward.
