Black and White Darkroom Workshop

The hands-on black and white darkroom workshops detailed below give you the opportunity to learn the craft of traditional darkroom development and printing. We will teach you everything from how to develop your black and white film by hand, enlarge them manually by using an enlarger and develop your own photographs under our guidance. 

​The workshop packages are suitable for everyone, from beginners to those wanting a refresher on the process. Participants are able to use our chemicals and equipment for the film development and enlargement process to make prints in our darkroom.

​Please take a look at our recording of a demonstration of the process!
