LightBox Photographic Gallery opens “The Portland Darkroom Exhibit” with an opening artists’ reception on
Saturday, March 9th from 5-8 p.m. The beauty of the Fiber Silver Gelatin print is one of LightBox Gallery’s loves. In this exhibit they celebrate the members of the Portland Darkroom and their dedication to the art of the Silver Gelatin Process.

Founded by seven former volunteers of Portland’s lost Newspace Center for Photography, The Portland Darkroom is a member-supported community space for the practice of analog photography. Their mission is to keep film photography alive and accessible. PDR is a fully functional analog studio, with darkroom, film processing and scanning capabilities. They are a volunteer-run organization focused on providing a space for the practice of film photography and building the community around this work.
