Membership

Join the society at the heart of Oxford's magic. Everyone who loves the art is welcome.

What Membership Means

Wizards of Ox is a society, not a service. Members meet every month, share what they know, test new material on each other and put on events that bring magic to wider audiences. Some of us perform for a living. Some of us invent. Some of us collect, study or simply love watching a good trick land.

As a member you get a warm welcome at every meetup, access to lectures and workshops, the chance to collaborate on shows, and a listing in our member directory if you perform. More than anything, you get a community that wants to see your magic get better.

You do not need to be experienced. You do not need to be a professional. You need to love magic and be generous with it. That is the whole entry requirement.

Membership and Cedar Hollow

Fellowship membership includes access to scheduled gatherings and selected members' events at Cedar Hollow Oxford. It does not provide unrestricted access to the accommodation, pool or private guest areas. Cedar Hollow remains a working retreat, so access outside those occasions must be arranged separately.

How to Join

1

Come to a Meetup

Once a month, aboard the bus at Cedar Hollow Oxford. See the events page for the next date, then just turn up and say hello.

2

Get to Know Us

Watch, chat, show us a trick if you like. See whether the room feels like home. We think it will.

3

Become a Member

Tell us you would like to join and we will take care of the rest, including your directory listing if you perform.

Can't make a meetup yet? Email us about membership and we will get back to you.

Common Questions

Who can join?

Anyone who loves magic and is generous with it: performers, hobbyists, inventors, collectors, students and families. No professional experience is required and beginners are welcome.

Is it for performers only?

No. Inventors, collectors and serious students of magic are as much a part of the Fellowship as working performers.

What does membership include?

A warm welcome at every meetup, access to lectures and workshops, the chance to collaborate on shows, and a directory listing if you perform.

How often do we meet?

Once a month, aboard the vintage double-decker at Cedar Hollow Oxford. The next date is always on the events page.

What happens after I get in touch?

We will reply by email, invite you along to a meetup and take care of the rest, including your directory listing if you perform.

Is there a code of conduct?

A written code of conduct covering how we look after each other, our audiences and the secrets of the craft is being prepared with members and will be published on the resources page.
