JOIN US ON AN
Epicurean Adventure
Ephemera’s tasting menu invites guests to embark on an epicurean journey through a multi-course format. The menu evolves continuously, offering return guests a new experience at each visit, living up to the ephemeral nature of the original pop-up dinners.
Our team encourages conversation, indulgence and experimentation throughout the meal. Reservations are required for the tasting menu & are offered from 4-10 pm
In contrast, Ephemera also offers a fully à la carte menu, stripping away the formality & allowing the guest to choose their own culinary adventure.
Think of this as punk rock fine dining.

Art At Ephemera
Ephemera showcases rotating Colorado-based artists.
We believe culinary arts and visual arts live together.
Our current artist on display is
Kevin Johnson
Kevin Johnson is a Colorado-based painter, concept artist, graphic designer, sculptor, and animator known for his striking employment of vibrant colors and depictions of everyday people progressing, evolving through life. A native of Louisville, Kentucky, Johnson pulls his images from childhood memories, life experiences, and his active imagination, with friends and family inspiring several works. Primarily working in acrylic but known to “dive into oil paint from time to time,” Johnson paints positive figures and images, ones that leave us hopeful, enchanted, inspired.
“I love using bright colors and painting images of people and how they move through life. It’s amazing, to me, how we can change from day to day.”
A retired 21-year member of the U.S. Army who actively served in Iraq and Afghanistan, Johnson graduated with a B.S. in computer animation from Full Sail University before returning to school to study media design.
Highlands is proud to exhibit a 6 month resident artist at Ephemera! This space allows the creative to rotate their work and display experimental ideas during their time with us. Our current artist is Annaliese Allen.
Annaliese Allen was born in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Growing up in a multicultural home and spending the first decade of her life living in three states and five countries, Annaliese has a deep-rooted love of diverse culture and food. Although the beautiful foothills of Colorado Springs, Colorado have long been home, Annaliese seeks every opportunity to travel and learn from other cultures.
