📖 About the Program
The Ephemere Photobook Club, which started in Tokyo in November 2025 and has been held monthly, is coming to Kyoto! This is not a formal talk with a guest speaker, but rather a completely casual, welcoming space for photographers, collectors, and anyone curious about photobooks to simply hang out. Join us to share your favorite titles, discuss photography over coffee, browse the exhibition library, and connect with the local creative community.
🎒 How to Participate
We highly encourage you to bring 1 or 2 of your favorite photobooks (or your own work) to share with the group! As a fun alternative to traditional business cards, you are also encouraged (but not required) to bring small photo prints (L or 2L size) to share and exchange with co-attendees. Of course, you are also completely welcome to just come, listen, and browse without bringing anything at all.
