Experience analogue photography in one of Melbourne's few publicly accessible traditional darkrooms.

It's a good idea to book a local dinner afterwards. We're nearby some of Melbourne's best options such as Dodam, Bridge Road, Rumi and Rocket Society!

What to expect

You'll spend the workshop selecting a negative from our archive over over 50 historical originals, then bring it inside a real darkroom to create silver gelatin prints under red light. The workshop is fully guided and you'll leave with authentic artworks created by you with no digital input. We provide all materials and a relaxed, easygoing atmosphere which is welcoming to complete beginners.
