Anne is the co-owner of Sideshow and an in house tarot reader (AKA The Demon Cleaner). She loves to rant about politics, revolution, music, art and anything else worth getting worked up about. She loves to travel, learn about new people and places, cook and explore.
Anne is a Taurus- and true to her earth sign, loves gardening, growing and nature. A born collector, Anne is obsessed with finding unusual treasures for the store and giving them a second life. Sideshow is truly a labor of love for her: curating the gallery, merchandising the store and putting on events- all make her very happy. Anne feels the best part about this place is the feeling of being apart of this great city and the artists/artisans that are a part of this community. She is is fascinated by the occult and the many diverse divination practices.
Want to learn how to read tarot, pick out a deck or do a reading? Anne would love to help you! She also teaches tarot classes.
Amalia is the manager of Sideshow Gallery and loves to promote self love, protection, and manifesting inner beauty based on her Greek roots and her love of Aphrodite. She encourages everyone to listen to their intuition regarding when it’s time to let go of people and situations that are toxic; Shadow-work journaling, cord cuttings, and egg cleansings are Amalia’s favorite practices to keep her energy clear and protected. She creates the in-house spell jars and also instructs our Spellcraft workshop series.
Amalia has been reading tarot for 15+ years and learned from her grandmother. She also offers oracle & pendulum readings, and is planning to learn how to read bones & charms as another form of divination.
Jacob Mayfield is a seasoned tarot, palmistry, and oracular artistry expert. With a deep respect for the mystical traditions and an ability to make them accessible, Jacob provides unique and empowering readings. Whether exploring the symbolism of tarot cards, the stories carried in the lines of your palms, or other ancient techniques, he helps clients uncover clarity and insight.
Jacob has provided readings for private events, public gatherings, and one-on-one clients nationwide.
He is also the author of "Tarot Odyssey: A Beginner's Guide to All 78 Cards, Their Meanings, History, and Developing Your Intuition," a resource created for readers at every level to expand their knowledge and intuition.
Jamie is a tarot reader, intuitive guide, and former psychology student turned mystic. She was on the path to becoming a therapist when she realized she could help people more directly and immediately through tarot. With a deep background in psychology and a lifelong connection to the unseen, Jamie offer grounded, compassionate readings that blend emotional insight with cosmic wisdom.
Her approach is trauma-informed, heart-led, and rooted in lived experience. She’s been through the fire—grief, instability, identity shifts, and starting over more than once. Jamie doesn’t see tarot as a party trick, but as a tool for clarity, healing, and remembering who you are. Whether you’re facing a crossroads, a breakdown, or just feel like something’s “off,” she’s here to help you find your way through.
Outside of one-on-one readings, Jamie worked large and small events, taught workshops on tarot and magic, and is passionate about making spiritual tools accessible to everyone—including men, skeptics, and seekers who feel like they don’t quite belong in the spiritual world (spoiler: you do).
