Students will learn proper printing practices, from the developer to the stop bath to the fixer, as well as how to burn and dodge, add or subtract contrast, and how to mix chemicals. Lectures will include information about various paper choices and sizes, archival methods, and how to flatten and retouch fiber base prints.

This will be the first darkroom class in LACP’s new space. The class will meet four times in the classroom over a four-month time period. During the first month, each student will receive one two-hour private lesson in the darkroom with Richard S. Chow. During the next three months, students can book as many hours as needed in the darkroom.
