[NEW BLOG POST] A New Chapter for SW Darkroom
From 1st March, we’re making some changes to refine our focus and better serve our community. SW Darkroom will now primarily offer printing sessions, scanning services, and workshops.

- Printing sessions will be available every Saturday, with occasional extra days.
- Film processing will no longer be available but scanning services will continue with a one-week turnaround.
- Workshops will run occasionally—stay tuned for announcements via our newsletter & social media.

We’re excited about this next phase, bringing the darkroom back to its core mission: a space for printing, learning, and analogue creativity.
