ephemeral is an arts collective and resource hub dedicated to building resilient, place-based creative communities across the Colorado Plateau.

We support artists through our print magazine, workshops, gatherings, resource dissemination, and monthly newsletter.

We just hosted STOOPFEST, a community-based performance arts festival.

Keep an eye out for Issue 3, Friend or Foe, publishing soon.
