Magicians Without Borders
This past Wednesday Tom Verner who started Magicians Without Borders came to Walden. Tom spoke about how Magicians Without Borders came to be, where it has gone, and of course performed a few of his magnificent magic tricks. Magicians Without Borders travels to refugee camps in places such as Uganda, El Salvador, and Ethiopia. They also perform for orphanages and hospitals. Tom spoke enthusiastically about all of his trips and performances. He was eager to share his experiences and ended with a flourish of rainbow tissue paper trailing from his mouth.
