Norwich Community Darkroom Comes to Cromer
After opening its doors in Norwich in summer 2026, Norwich Community Darkroom is heading to the coast for a special takeover at Cromer Artspace.
Cromer Artspace will become exhibition space, meeting place, learning hub and pop-up darkroom, bringing the magic of analogue photography to the seaside. Whether you’re already passionate about film photography or simply curious to discover what happens when you step into a darkroom, this is a chance to get hands-on, get creative and experience photography in a completely different way.
Everyone is welcome. You might be picking up a film camera for the very first time, studying art, exploring a new creative outlet, or rediscovering forgotten negatives tucked away in family archives. Whatever your experience, Norwich Community Darkroom is excited to share its passion for black and white photography with Cromer’s creative community.
There will be workshops, walks and activities designed to inspire experimentation and exploration. Join a coastal photo walk, create images without a camera through photograms and cyanotypes, print your own black and white postcards, and discover some unexpected ways of making images from the natural world around us. There may even be a little seaweed slapping involved.
Curious? Come along and experience the creative possibilities of the darkroom for yourself.
More details, schedule and booking info will be available nearer the time
