CFP: Ephemera Society of America 2027 Conference

Ephemera Marks the Day: Holidays & Celebrations

Request for Presentations:

Holidays and celebrations give us a chance to take a break from our regular schedules and focus on something special. They can mark or commemorate historically significant events, such as Independence Day, Juneteenth, or Memorial Day. They may mark a holiday, religious or otherwise, like Christmas, Mardi Gras, Halloween or Mother’s Day. Celebrations may also be held for personal events, such as a birthday, wedding anniversary, religious confirmation or graduation.  And increasingly, a plethora of national days have been promoted by industry or interest groups, some of which have been instituted through government resolution. Earth Day (an international observance) is more serious in nature. National Peanut Butter Day, Sibling Day, or Hug an Australian Day are more light-hearted. Almost every holiday has its “trappings,” many of which take the form of ephemera. And the look of these trappings evolves over time and can vary significantly according to culture or region.

Ephemera 47, the Ephemera Society of America (ESA) annual conference, will take place at the Hyatt Regency in Greenwich, Connecticut, on Friday, March 19, 2027. Each speaker will address a topic related to a celebration or holiday, relying heavily on tangible ephemera—invitations, decorations, posters, advertisements, greeting cards, tickets, brochures, menus, trade cards, broadsides, receipts, souvenirs, correspondence, itineraries, photographs, postcards, maps, diaries—to illustrate their subject. Keep in mind that our focus is not just the images of your chosen subject but the story of your subject, its significance, how it is celebrated and how it evolved over time. 

Each presentation will be 30 minutes in length, followed by a brief Q&A. Please submit the following:

·         Presentation title and a written abstract, focusing on the way ephemera tells the story of your chosen topic. Please describe the specific types of ephemera you will use to illustrate your topic. Each presentation needs to feature at least three different types of ephemera. Proposals should not exceed 150 words.

·         5 to 6 representative ephemera images

·         Single-paragraph biography, including any affiliations

·         A .jpg photograph of yourself for publicity purposes

·         Mailing address, phone number and e-mail address

Following a review of all proposals, finalists may be asked to submit 10 to 15 images of the types of ephemera that will be used to illustrate their talk. Proposals must be submitted via e-mail or post by September 15, 2026 to Barbara Loe, Ephemera 47 Conference Chair.

e-mail: bjloe@earthlink.net 

post:      Ephemera Society of America, Inc., P.O. Box 95, Cazenovia, NY 13035-0095.

Decisions and notification about proposals will be made by November 30, 2026. Presenters will be requested to sign a release at the time of acceptance allowing their presentation to be filmed for use by the ESA.

If selected, a draft PowerPoint presentation must be submitted by February 28, 2027. The final presentation must be submitted by March 12, 2027. Presentations must include 25 or more ephemera images. At this time, funding is not available from ESA to support travel or presentation costs. 

ESA is eager to expand the use of ephemera in the classroom, and we encourage presentations on all subjects addressing the use of ephemera in teaching and academic research. We encourage undergraduate and graduate students to submit proposals for the Emerging Scholars Program to be held on Thursday afternoon, March 18th.  For more information, please see “Emerging Scholars” under the “Discover” tab on our website:  www.ephemerasociety.org

CFP: Chapters on Conspiracies and Visual Culture

Conspiracies and Visual Culture

Editor Information: Stephanie Beene (sbeene@unm.edu) and Katie Greer (greer@oakland.edu)

Abstract

Conspiracy ideation in America is on the rise and has infected popular culture and social media. This phenomenon is deeply concerning, not least because it moves beyond fringe groups to influence mainstream discourse and belief systems. Despite extensive academic work on the psychological underpinnings of conspiracy belief and the linguistic/rhetorical analysis of related texts, a crucial gap remains. Specifically, there is an underdeveloped area of study concerning the sophisticated and widespread influence of the visual, not only in disseminating conspiracy ideation generally but at the juncture where it intersects with evangelical subcultures. 

The information landscape is currently saturated with visual content designed to sow distrust and disseminate disinformation. The tools of digital media creation have become powerful vectors for this spread. Examples abound, from the unsettling realism of DeepFake TikToks and sophisticated AI-generated imagery, which blur the lines between reality and fiction, to seemingly innocuous visuals—photographs, charts, or video clips—that are removed from their original, legitimate contexts and weaponized to promote baseless narratives.  The ease of production and viral distribution of this visual misinformation and disinformation means that educators must become acutely aware of the mechanisms by which visuals, more than just text, are influencing conspiracy ideation in novel and increasingly alarming ways.

To effectively combat this rising tide of visual disinformation, there is an urgent need for scholarly and practical intervention. Incorporating robust frameworks of visual literacy—the ability to interpret, negotiate, and make meaning from information presented in images—and the broader concept of metaliteracy—the comprehensive understanding of how to produce, evaluate, and share information across various media—can significantly enhance our collective ability to analyze and deconstruct these narratives. This approach would allow us to move beyond simply identifying a conspiracy and delve into how semiotics and imagery—the signs, symbols, and visual language employed—influence and solidify conspiracy beliefs. Addressing the visual dimension of this crisis represents a crucial step toward filling a significant, and currently dangerous, gap in current scholarship and public awareness, especially as it relates to communities where these visual narratives are most readily accepted.

This edited volume aims to bring together leading scholars from both conspiracy studies and visual literacy studies to examine visual messaging in conspiracy theory culture.

The book will be divided into the following sections:

  • Part 1: The participatory environment: Visuals and conspiracy engagement
  • Part 2: Hidden messages: The semiotics of visuals in conspiracy communities
  • Part 3: Critical visual thinking: Educating for conspiracy avoidance
  • Part 4: Nefarious Tropes: Historical intersections of visuals and conspiracy theories

Chapter topics could include:

  • Visual analysis of conspiracist aesthetics on social media
  • Mis/ mal/disinformation as political tools
  • Visual Literacy to inoculate against conspiracism
  • Generative artificial intelligence and conspiracy visual culture
  • Analyses of the attention economy, platform capitalism, or recommendation algorithms driving conspiracist content
  • “Do your own research” communities or movements
  • Historical analyses of the use of visuals to promote conspiracy theories
  • Cultural influences of conspiracy theories
  • Gender and sexuality studies and the “manosphere” or “trad” communities
  • Information overload & culture
  • Cognitive visual processing and conspiracy imagery

CfP: Practicing the Archival Commons: Publics, Power and Perspectives (STIAS Feb 2027) deadline 5 JUNE 2026

This workshop seeks to examine refigured archiving work currently undertaken in Africa as well as to learn more about the ways in which this refigures scholarship. Introducing the concept of the ‘archival commons’, it particularly aims at studying diverse forms of archiving as common, communal or communing practices that have significant effects on both preservation and critical historical work.

Practicing the Archival Commons: Publics, Power and Perspectives

In 2002, scholars and archival practitioners, mainly thinking from and working in South Africa, published Refiguring the Archive amidst the transformative imperative against apartheid and the colonial past. The book’s authors argued that archival conceptualization, practice and use all “required transformation” (Hamilton et al. 2002, 7). The publication turns our attention to the convergence of a range of developments in the twenty-first century including a broader archival turn across academic disciplines, a transnational professional reexamination of archival praxis, the rapid expansion and acceleration of digital technologies, and public demands to address the past and its discontents.

Against this backdrop, this workshop seeks to examine refigured archiving work currently undertaken in Africa as well as to learn more about the ways in which this refigures scholarship. Introducing the concept of the ‘archival commons’, it particularly aims at studying diverse forms of archiving as common, communal or communing practices that have significant effects on both preservation and critical historical work. Rooted in the broader notion of commons as shared cultural, informational, and natural resources, the ‘archival commons’ contrast an understanding of archives as static, institutionally controlled spaces. The concept aligns with decolonial and liberatory approaches by envisioning archives as dynamic, participatory spaces governed collectively by archivists, researchers, and communities.

The goals of the workshop are twofold. First, the workshop aims to assess the making, workings, functioning, and meanings of archives which accentuate cooperation and reciprocity on the one hand and work towards greater justice, if not compensation, for past injustices or practices of silencing on the other. Second, acknowledging that archives are characterized by practices and their aliveness, it aims to study the affordances and limitations of common-based approaches to archiving for history and other academic disciplines and to explore their implications for research methodologies more generally. To meet these objectives, the workshop is planned as an event that includes both practical and theoretical elements and reflections. On the one hand, it is comprised of visits to, and active engagement with, archival projects in and around Stellenbosch University and from other parts of the African continent. On the other hand, it invites researchers, especially early in their careers, and practitioners in history, archival studies, heritage, postcolonial studies and anthropology to think of the ‘archival commons’ together and investigate it as a way of engaging the past. Therefore, we invite proposals for papers that address the ‘archival commons’ with reference to one or more of the following themes and questions:

Publics

– How does archiving as a common, communal or communing practice contribute to transformative discourses and which publics are involved? What are the roles of trained archivists and professional identities in this context?
– What social and cultural work is performed by the ‘archival commons’ in general and by specific archival projects in particular? How can/do/should scholars consider this in their engagement with such projects?
– What do the ‘’archival commons’ create? Who makes, sustains and takes care of them? Which (digital) infrastructures do they need? How do digital infrastructures enable or limit their possibilities?
– How do or can the ‘archival commons’ or specific common archival initiatives contribute to refiguring social, economic, political, environmental and digital relations?

Power

– How does power operate in the ‘archival commons’? In how far does the ‘archival commons’ constitute a possibility to reconsider power relations in current archival practice?
– What renders archival labor visible or invisible? How do practitioners preserve their archival work in precarious conditions? How do they refigure archival practices such as selection, description, preservation, and access considering critiques of archival conventions?
– How do archival practitioners engage with digitization and the new conventions, challenges, (in)equalities and possibilities it brings about?
– How do archival projects deal with difference, conflict and difficult histories? Considering that archiving documents involves more than ‘simply’ preserving them –by adding value through appraisal, processing, description and – how is value created and maintained?
– What cooperations and disjunctures have formed between archival professionals, researchers, and ‘subjects’?

Perspectives

– Which epistemological and social perspectives have been, are being or could be opened by archival projects in the twenty-first century?
– How does common archiving impact knowledge production and in which societal fields? How does it impact research practices and methodologies?
– What material conditions, relationships and understandings are needed or desired to practice and sustain the ‘archival commons’ as a socially responsible and epistemologically meaningful project?

Please send a proposal of no more than 300 words and a one-page CV by June 5, 2026 to archivalcommonsworkshop@gmail.com. Participants will be notified by the end of August 2026. The workshop will be held in English and focus on the discussion of pre-circulated papers of about 3,000 words (submission due by December 15, 2026). In case of submissions with more than one author, we will only be able to accommodate one person per proposal due to budgetary restrictions. Please indicate in your proposal who should be considered as the main applicant.

The workshop is organized in the framework of the “Programme Point Sud” of the German Research Foundation (DFG) and Goethe University Frankfurt. Costs for travel and accom-modation will be covered.

CFP: Borders and Sustainability: Human and Natural Resources across Time and Space (Seminar Series 2026–2027)

Call for Papers: Entangled Histories Seminar Series 2026–2027

Following the success of the current edition, the Entangled Histories Seminar Series invites abstracts for its 2026–2027 cycle: 

“Borders and Sustainability: Human and Natural Resources across Time and Space.”

This edition explores sustainability not as an exclusively environmental concern but as a multifaceted concept that intersects with borders across diverse cultural, material, and ecological contexts. 

The series adopts a diachronic and interdisciplinary perspective, spanning from prehistory to the contemporary world.

Sustainability and Borders: A Broad Perspective. We seek to investigate sustainability in its multiple dimensions:

  • Material sustainability: recycling of resources (manuscripts, architectural structures, waste, and landscapes).
  • Ecological sustainability: relationships between humans, animals, and environments; balance between preservation and exploitation.
  • Social, linguistic, and cultural sustainability: transmission of knowledge, endangered languages, healing practices, migration, and community resilience.
  • Symbolic sustainability: representations of ecological limits, hybrid beings, and cultural imaginaries of nature and borders.

Conceptual Framework At the heart of the series lies the concept of borders, understood as dynamic thresholds that shape access to resources and regulate interactions. Borders are not only physical or political: they can be ecological, cultural, social, linguistic, political and material. While we encourage long-term temporalities and global spatial entanglements, we also offer the elements (earth, water, air, fire, ether, wood, etc.) as a possible heuristic framework to explore these dimensions across different historical strata.

Topics of Interest: We encourage contributions from a wide range of disciplines, including but not limited to:

  • Archaeology and Prehistory: Resource use, landscapes, indigenous practices, and environmental interactions over time.
  • Medieval Studies, Philology, and Manuscript Cultures: Material sustainability of manuscripts, palimpsests, intellectual ecologies, literatures and languages, and the transmission of knowledge.
  • Art History and Visual Culture: Representations of nature, landscapes, borders, and material practices across different periods.
  • Anthropology and Folklore: Vernacular ecological knowledge, oral traditions, liminal beings, and environmental imaginaries.
  • History of Science and Medicine: Healing practices, scientific knowledge, and environmental understanding across cultures.
  • Environmental Humanities and Ecology: Human–non-human relations, ecosystems, climate, and resilience.
  • History of Economy, Trade, and Food Systems: Circulation of resources, subsistence, scarcity, and sustainability practices.
  • Architecture and Infrastructure Studies: Built environments, water and soil management, roads, and material borders.
  • Geography, Cartography, and Media Studies: Spatial representation, mapping, and communication of environmental knowledge across borders.

 High-Impact Publication Opportunity: A selection of the most significant contributions will be published in a dedicated edited volume or a special issue with a leading international publisher (past collaborations and ongoing projects include prestigious venues such as Brill, De Gruyter, and Routledge). This ensures that the research presented reaches a global audience of specialists.

Submission Guidelines

  • Format: Online seminar (approximately 30-minute talk + discussion).
  • Schedule: October 2026 – Summer 2027.
  • Required: Title, Abstract (250–300 words), Short Bio (100–150 words), Affiliation, email address, and preferred months of availability.

CFP: Advancing Foundation Archives 2026

The Advancing Foundation Archives (AFA) 2026 organizing committee invites proposals for lightning talks at the group’s third conference. AFA 2026 will take place at the Ford Foundation Center for Social Justice in New York City on October 21 & 22, 2026. Registration will open in the coming months with no cost to attendees.  

About the Conference 

Philanthropy archives hold an essential record of how individuals and communities organize, fund, and sustain efforts to address society’s most pressing issues. These archives and knowledge systems are facing unique challenges from AI disruption to leadership transitions to sunsetting trends as philanthropies grapple with changing local and global conditions.   

The AFA conference will bring together archives and philanthropy professionals to navigate these challenges, discuss solutions, and shape the future of how foundations manage and preserve their records and share the knowledge in their archives.  

Theme for lightning talks 

The history of a philanthropy is found in its records – the documents, data, and institutional knowledge that tell the story of what they have accomplished and what they have learned. Across departments, and sometimes organizations, people work every day to create, manage, preserve, and draw knowledge and insight from this information.    

But the ground is always shifting. As surely as processes and systems are developed and instituted to support these tasks, change inevitably arrives. It could be a new tool that streamlines a workflow, a reorganization that reshapes responsibilities, a sunsetting deadline that accelerates grant making, or a new goal to share more records, learning, and impact with external groups.    

However change arrives, it asks something of those who steward organizational knowledge. Whether you manage knowledge, information, or archives, we want to hear how you responded. What changed at  your foundation or philanthropic organization, and how did you adapt?  What lessons did you learn? How has your organization emerged better positioned to inform grantmaking, deepen learning, or tell the story of a philanthropy?   

Proposal submission guidelines:   

This panel is a lightning round of 5 to 10 minute presentations.   Submit your proposal via this form. 

Proposals must be submitted by July 15. Those submitting proposals will be notified of selection by July 31. There is no fee to attend the conference.  Presenters will need to arrange their own travel and accommodation. 

 For additional information or questions, email Lori Eaton at  lori.eaton@rcwjrf.org.   

The conference is sponsored by the Ford Foundation, Gates Foundation and the Gates Archive, the Hogg Foundation for Mental Health, the Mellon Foundation, the Ralph C. Wilson, Jr. Foundation, the Rockefeller Archive Center, and the Rockefeller Foundation.   

CFP: RBM Fall 2026 Issue
