For schools looking to revitalize or launch a black-and-white darkroom program, Gallery 44 offers in-depth Darkroom Consultations designed specifically for educators and school administrators. This service includes an on-site visit where our facilitator will tour the space, test equipment functionality and safelight levels, and conduct a full inventory of existing materials.
Following the visit, schools will receive a customized work plan that includes:
- A comprehensive list of required equipment and recommended suppliers
- Renovation or infrastructure suggestions (if applicable)
- Teaching recommendations tailored to the school’s goals and curriculum
- Safety considerations and workflow optimizations for student use
Ideal for schools aiming to reactivate their darkroom or create one from scratch, this consultation ensures a practical and sustainable setup that supports hands-on learning. Sessions typically range from 4 to 6 hours.
For more information or to setup a consultations, please contact Leila Fatemi, Curator of Education and Community Outreach.
