Events

MWE at your event:
We can bring our Kelsey 5×8″ tabletop press to your event and set up a fun (and educational!) printing station. There are many options, including demonstrations, classes, and the opportunity for guests to print or customize a memento of the event. Email us for more information!

MWE-hosted events and craft fairs
Watch this space (and our social media) for MWE-hosted workshops and our appearances at craft fairs and other events.

Wanna visit the shop?
We share a lovely-but-small shop space that we’d love to show you, but getting there involves (this is not a metaphor) feeling your way through what is essentially a dark cave with spiders. On top of that, we keep some pretty weird hours. But we can make it happen! Please email us to make an appointment, or if you have some very inexpensive commercial space for rent.

Interested in printing? Want to learn more?
We highly recommend visiting the Hamilton Wood Type and Printing Museum in Two Rivers, Wisconsin. It’s a couple hours north of Chicago on Lake Michigan, it’s a lovely, scenic, alcohol-soaked town and a nice place to spend a weekend. Meeting Jim and Stephanie at the Hamilton museum several years ago set off the chain of events that launched Midwest Ephemera into reality, and we visit every chance we get. The musuem hosts workshops, exhibitions, and a fantastic annual Wayzgoose conference.
