Learn how to make a silver gelatine print in our beautiful black and white darkroom.
£45.00
Make Your First Darkroom Print
In this short workshop you'll learn how to make a traditional black and white darkroom print.
Bring along your own developed black and white negatives and spend some time learning how to use a photographic enlarger, light and chemistry to create a beautiful silver gelatin print by hand.
You'll leave with a unique, one-of-a-kind print, a new understanding of the darkroom process and, hopefully, a few new photography friends too.
We believe the darkroom should be an accessible, welcoming and collaborative space. Whether you're making your very first print or returning to analogue photography after many years, you'll be warmly welcomed at Sequence.

Your own developed black and white negatives (35mm, 120 or 5x4)

If you have any accessibility requirements, please let us know in advance and we'll do everything we can to accommodate you.

Cancellation Policy
Cancellations made more than 14 days before the workshop will receive a full refund.
Unfortunately, cancellations made within 14 days of the workshop are non refundable unless we are able to fill your place from the waiting list.

Accessibility
Sequence is based within Backlit Studios, a beautifully restored former factory building dating back almost 200 years.
Our darkroom is wheelchair accessible with some temporary modifications to the entrance. However, due to the nature of the historic building, some areas are not fully accessible for all wheelchair users or those with certain mobility requirements.
Accessible toilets are located two floors above the studio and can be reached via either a lift or stairs.
If you have any questions about accessibility or would like to discuss your individual requirements before booking, please don't hesitate to get in touch.
