G4G15 Registration is now Open
From February 21st through 25th, 2024, in Atlanta, Georgia, G4G participants will gather, in Martin Gardner’s name, to celebrate recreational mathematics, magic, puzzles, skepticism, science, art, literature, and the intersections of these subjects. Countless exchanges of ideas and examples of magic will inspire and delight. Past attendees and nominated parts will have gotten an email.
You are welcome to nominate new attendees for invitation to G4G15. Please let us know how your nominee will enrich the G4G community. Fill out the form once for each person being nominated, here.

Dan Garrett Tribute
It is with great sadness that G4G notes the passing of of Atlanta magician Dan Garrett, who has been attending G4G since the very first meeting in 1993.
We are setting up a tribute page in his memory and will be collecting Stories, blog posts, photos, and other tributes to share on the G4G Tributes webpage.
