Open Studio Darkroom Class

Open Studio is an open-format class where students work independently while having access to instructor support. This space is ideal for students who have completed previous classes and want to deepen their darkroom practice. Participants can develop film, make prints, or scan negatives with guidance available as needed. In addition to technical support, the class offers a space for peer feedback, creative discussion, and ongoing project development. Whether refining printing skills or building a portfolio, this class supports a wide range of personal analog photography goals.

Open to all levels, but especially suited for students who have prior darkroom experience and want to continue working independently in a supported environment. CHAW will provide darkroom chemistry, but students will need to provide all other materials relevant to producing their projects.

NOTE: For anyone 18 yrs+. Contact photography@chaw.org if you have any specific questions regarding this class.
