Edward, the magician, seemed to be running short of tricks as he presented his show in front of an enthusiastic and young audience at the 91原创 Arts Council (LAC) on Saturday, Sept. 3.
The performance was part of the council鈥檚 first-ever Fall Fest and Open house.
Mostly kids under 10, the audience looked amazed when Edward made objects appear and disappear, twisted balloons, and read people鈥檚 minds.
For Walnut Grove鈥檚 seven-year-old Oliver Living and his siblings Lyla and Miya, the show was 鈥渟uper fun.鈥

In addition, the event also featured three live music performances by local band KatMoon, and singer-songwriters Ava Hamil and Patricia Dunphy.
