Arts After Hours: Arts Member-Exclusive Events AIM After Hours: The Healing Power of Magic with Kevin Spencer

Join us for the latest AIM After Hours, an ongoing member-exclusive series.

Step behind the curtain and experience the transformative power of therapeutic magic.

Join UAB Arts members for a special AIM After Hours featuring internationally recognized illusionist and educator Dr. Kevin Spencer, founder of the Healing of Magic™ program. In partnership with UAB Arts in Medicine, Dr. Spencer will demonstrate how structured magic techniques are used as therapeutic tools to support motor skills, cognitive development, communication, and emotional well-being in clinical and community settings.

This interactive evening offers members an inside look at how UAB Arts in Medicine integrates evidence-informed creative practices into healthcare and community environments. Guests will witness live demonstrations, hear about the impact of magic in rehabilitation and trauma-responsive care, and even learn a simple technique themselves.

Discover how wonder becomes a pathway to healing, and how the arts continue to expand what’s possible in health and human connection.
