I hope you’ll be able to join me and my friends on this special evening.

Although the National Arts Club (in Gramercy Park, NYC) is a private club, this dinner is open to the public, reservations only. I’ll be giving a performance at the end of the award dinner.

Here’s the blurb:

Magician Steve Cohen’s FIRST PUBLIC PERFORMANCES in New York were held in the legendary NATIONAL ARTS CLUB a decade ago. Since then, his critically acclaimed, weekly Chamber Magic show in a Waldorf-Astoria Towers suite has amazed more than 250,000 guests. Woody Allen called Chamber Magic “a religious experience.”
