Darkroom Foundations Workshop
Step into the darkroom and learn the foundational skills of black & white film development and darkroom printing in a relaxing and supportive environment.
This workshop is suited to beginners, those keen for a refresh, and anyone with exposed black & white film who want a clear, guided introduction to analogue darkroom photography. The Darkroom Foundations Workshop runs most Saturdays from 10:00am - 3:00pm. Pre-booking is essential, as most workshops book out 2-3 weeks in advance.
