Setting Up Your
Alternative Process Dim Room

Online Workshop

This online workshop guides the photographic artist through setting up a home darkroom tailored for alternative photographic processes such as cyanotype, salt printing, palladium, and gum bichromate. Perfect for artists and experimental photographers, the course focuses on creating a space where you can practice your non-traditional, daylight-sensitive printing methods, not requiring complete darkness or enlargers.

Participants will learn how to convert small spaces into functional, creative labs using UV light sources, coating areas, and wash stations. The workshop discusses essential tools, suggestions for safe handling of chemistry, and paper preparation techniques.

Detailed materials lists, safety guides, and printable setup plans make the process approachable and budget-friendly. Live Q&A sessions and peer forums offer ongoing support.

By the end, users will have a customized space and the confidence to explore a range of expressive, tactile printing methods from home.
