If you’ve made a black & white print before, this workshop is a great refresher on technique and will show you how to maximize the tools in Aurora’s darkroom. If this is your first time, or if you’ve only watched a couple videos online, the small size of this workshop makes it ideal for asking questions and getting comfortable with the process.

Covered in the workshop:

* Selecting negatives to print
* Operating the enlarger, easel, grain focuser, and other equipment
* Making a test strip
* Proper technique with the chemistry trays
* Care, storage, and handling of prints

All chemistry, paper, and equipment are included in the price of the workshop. During the workshop, you will create 1-3 prints.

What to bring to the workshop:

* 35mm or 120mm black & white film to print

Prior knowledge of black & white printing is a plus but not necessary for this workshop. This workshop is best suited to artists 16+ years old; minors must be accompanied by an adult. 

This workshop will be taught by Lab Manager Carlos Perez. All sessions are taught at Aurora PhotoCenter.
