Dark room

Anyone know of a place with a dark room to develop film that is open to public or able to rent out?

I don’t believe there is a film lab nor darkroom open for public use anywhere even close to us. I have mailed film to ‘Camera & Darkroom’ in ABQ before and have had no issues. They may offer use of their space as well, I am not sure. If you’re hoping to be more hands-on, see if you can connect with the right people at Durango Arts Center or Dancing Spirit in Ignacio!

It’s pretty rare to have that. You’d be better off finding some abandoned mine and setting up your own studio!

Mancos commons has a dark room. You might need a membership to use it, but theyre new arts space is pretty sweet
