“Before a person can be an effective Gospel magician [performer], they must first become an effective magician [performer].”
Theme from 1959 conference that continues to be a theme today.

*Please note that while the museum will use the word “convention” to refer to the annual International get-together, some years the word “conference” was used by the organizers.

Regional & Overseas Conferences
Getting to an International Convention was a wonderful experience, but was not possible for many members. Regional conferences helped fill the gap. FCM members in Europe & Asia also held conferences for their members.
