Spring Darkroom Residency: A Recap
Owen McGill · April 3, 2026
Six artists, four weeks, two darkrooms, and one ambitious group critique. Notes from this season's residency.
Lumen's Spring Darkroom Residency wrapped up last week, and we're still buzzing.
Across four weeks, six artists — three from Portland, three from out of state — produced new bodies of work in our silver and color darkrooms.
We hosted three open critiques and a closing reading by Saoirse Keane on the role of sequence in the photobook.
Applications for the Fall Residency open July 1.
