‘Unearth a Story’ with magician Isaiah Foster on August 13 from 11am-12pm!

Unearth a Story is a 45-minute family magic show that brings books to life with wonder, laughter, and unforgettable moments. The show blends amazing magic, light juggling, whimsical puppetry, and clean, interactive comedy that keeps kids and adults engaged from start to finish. Each magical moment connects back to a book introduced by Isaiah and highlights the power of imagination and the joy of reading. Audience members don’t just watch the magic – they become part of it, helping to unlock hidden surprises, discover secrets within books, and “unearth” the treasurers of storytelling.

Isaiah Foster’s interest in magic began when he was given a trick at the age of 9. He learned it and used it to entertain family and friends. He started gathering more magic and sharing with more audiences who encouraged his love for entertainment.
