The Sheffield Darkroom is here - the city’s only purpose-built, publicly rentable darkrooms. A quiet haven for anyone who loves the slow craft of film photography and traditional printing.
For a limited time only, our first members will get free membership - a little thank you for believing in the power of process and for being amongst the first to join our community.

Half Day Photo & Processing Workshop
Experience the full analogue process in just a few hours — a perfect introduction to film photography or a hands-on refresher. You’ll shoot a roll of black and white film (camera and film provided if needed), process it in the darkroom and create your very own contact sheet to take home.
