​

The Ephemera Society of America's (ESA) Ephemera 45 is a captivating and immersive conference and fair that celebrates the beauty and historical significance of ephemera.

 

Ephemera, referring to paper items that were never intended to be preserved, yet have miraculously endured, provides a unique glimpse into the past. This event is a treasure trove for collectors, historians, artists, and anyone fascinated by the stories told through these forgotten fragments of history. By bridging the past and present, the fair offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore the world of ephemera and discover the captivating narratives hidden within these fleeting artifacts. It's a celebration of history, art, and the human passion for collecting and cherishing the ephemeral moments of our past.​​
