Throug h intimate interviews and vivid on-the ground footage\, the film explores often-overlooked barriers to outdoor accessibility—alongside powerful st ories of resilience\, community\, and empowerment that emerge along the wa y.\nThe development of the documentary began with a diverse group of parti cipantsconnected to Bay Area disability organizations\, including Ala Cost a Centers\, BORP Adaptive Sports and Recreation\, The Center for Independe nt Living\, The Disability Cultural Center at UC Berkeley\, Friends of L ’Arche San Francisco Bay Area\, Creative Growth\, and NIAD Art Center. T hese partnerships have provided invaluable insight\, ensuring the film aut hentically reflects the lived experiences of people across a range of disa bilities. By featuring participants who are Deaf\, hard of hearing\, blind \, or who have mobility or cognitive disabilities\, Access Point highlight s the many ways disability intersects with the natural world. It becomes n ot just a story of overcoming obstacles\, but also one of the universal hu man desire to engage with the outdoors—underscoring the transformative p ower of nature for all. Partnerships and participation in Access Point\nar e currently expanding\, broadening its reach beyond the Bay Area to commun ities across the United States.\nAs participants explore outdoor spaces— from hiking trails and national parks to beaches\, forests\, and rivers— Access Point reveals the barriers people face\, including limited accessib ility\, lack of resources\, and social or cultural exclusion. Each partici pant brings a unique relationship to nature: some are seasoned explorers w hose access has been constrained\, while others are encountering these lan dscapes for the first time.\nThrough their experiences\, the film captures the joy\, reflection\, and sense of empowerment that nature can inspire w hen inequities in access are addressed. At its core\, Access Point is a st ory about inclusion\, equity\, and the right to experience the outdoors. I t asserts that access to nature is a fundamental right not a privilege— and examines how inaccessible outdoor spaces intersect with broader societ al inequities. By connecting the disability community with the environment al movement\,the film emphasizes that inclusive outdoor spaces are essenti al to a just and equitable society. It encourages a rethinking of how publ ic spaces are designed and used\, fostering collaboration between environm ental and disability advocates and sparking a broader conversation about a ccess\, equity\, and belonging.\nUltimately\, Access Point invites viewers to reflect on their own relationships to the natural world and to envisio n a future where outdoor spaces are welcoming to everyone. Through compell ing storytelling and the beauty of natural landscapes\, the documentary ad vocates for a world in which nature is a shared space—accessible\, engag ing\, and inspiring for all.

Taught by artist Chip Standifer\, this course demystifies the dar kroom process and gives participants the confidence to develop black and w hite film on their own.\n\nThe workshop is structured as three hours in th e morning and two hours in the afternoon\, with a break for lunch. In the morning session\, participants will cover the fundamentals of black and wh ite film\, including exposure considerations\, film types\, chemistry\, eq uipment\, and darkroom workflow. Chip will walk through each step of the d evelopment process\, explaining not just how to do it\, but why each step matters.\n\nAfter lunch\, participants will put theory into practice by de veloping their own first roll of black and white film. The afternoon sessi on focuses on hands-on learning\, troubleshooting common issues\, and best practices for consistency and archival results. By the end of the class\, participants will leave with a developed roll of film and a solid underst anding of how to repeat the process independently.\n\nThis workshop is ide al for beginners with little or no darkroom experience\, as well as digita l photographers curious about working with film.\n\nINSTRUCTOR: Chip Stand ifer\n\nAs a well-travelled but odd and disconnected child\, Chip Standife r was always a keen observer of people\, places and situations. At the age of 12\, he built a pinhole camera and discovered the delights of creating images\, developing film\, and the magic of photographic images emerging from the darkness.  Today\, when travelling the world for fast paced star tups\, he enjoys the meditative benefits of noticing the beauty everyone e lse misses as they hustle by.  His images have been juried into multiple shows at the Atlanta Photography Group\, the Photographer’s Eye Collecti ve\, The Houston Center for Photography\, the Photo Place Gallery\, the SO HO Photo Gallery\, the Southeastern Center for Photography\, the Atlanta A irport\, The 2025 Atlanta Art Fair\, The Marietta Cobb Art Museum\,  the John’s Creek Art Center\, The Fence Regional Show\, Slow Exposures\, The Montgomery Photo Festival\, The South By Southeast Gallery\, The Florida Museum of Photographic Arts\, The Madison-Morgan Cultural Center and the B uckhead Library.[/vc_column_text][us_separator size="small"][vc_column_tex t]Introduction to the Darkroom - Learning how to see and make pictures wit h your camera is one thing - learning how to make your photographs real by printing them is another artform\, entirely. To do so by hand is often lo oked at as something of a meditative\, alchemical\, and spiritual practice . Inthis Intro To Darkroom class\, you’ll be given the tools to immortal ize your images on silver gelatin paper through the classical means of bla ck and white photographic development.\n\nStudents will explore the relati onship between their film and paper of choice\, various chemistry\, contra st filters\, and proper darkroom etiquette. This course will be a hands on an immersive experience for beginners and returning analogue printers ali ke. Once complete\, students will have a fundamental understanding of dark room printing concepts as well as how to see and understand print worthy i mages before raising their camera to expose their film.\n\nChemistry will be provided.\n\nEach student should bring their own black and white negati ves and photosensitive paper to print with.\n\nClass will be limited to si x students.\n\nINSTRUCTOR: Quintavious Oliver\n\nQuintavius Oliver (b. 198 9 Atlanta\, Ga.) is an Atlanta based fine art and documentary photographer who uses his engaging and intimate portraits as a means for dynamic story telling. Acquiring his first camera at the age of six from his grandmother \, he immediately began to document his ever-expanding world. By his mid-2 0s the self-taught colorblind photographer was making waves in the photogr aphy community\, landing exhibitions at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Atlanta and the Griffin Museum in Winchester\, MA - all while raising his daughter as a full-time single father. Quintavius spent much of his early career straddling the fence between his documentary-style photography in t he streets of Atlanta and making intimate portraits with friends\, explori ng sexuality\, fear\, joy\, and identity. His work would eventually expand to places like India and Cuba where he would explore life in the homes of individuals and families\, fostering a sense of global community through photography. Those photographs have since been awarded 1st place in the 20 25 International Photography Awards in Greece\, exhibitions at The Art Gal lery of Alberta\, Canada\, and even the permanent collections of The Museu m of Contemporary Art\, Houston TX and the Museum of Contemporary Art\, Ga . Now\, still with a camera in hand\, Quintavius has made it his mission t o see and photograph people honestly and wholly as he continues to create a space for self-expression and vulnerability through his passion for phot ography.[/vc_column_text][us_separator size="small"][vc_column_text]\nWork shop Title – Saturday: Developing Black & White Film - Chip Standifer - 9am-3pm\nSunday: Intro to the Darkroom - Quintavious Oliver - 10am-3pm\nIn structor’s Names – Chip Standifer & Quintavious Oliver\nDate(s) – Sa turday\, September 19 & Sunday\, September 20\, 2026\nTime(s) – Saturday : 9:00am - 3:00pm / Sunday: 10:00am - 3:00pm\nLocation – In-Person at th e APG Gallery and Darkroom\nWorkshop Fee – Saturday $45 member / $65 non -members\nSunday $175 member / $195 non-members\nPurchase both Saturday an d Sunday $185 member / $205 non-members\nMaximum of 6 students for each cl ass\n[/vc_column_text][us_separator size="small"][us_btn label="REGISTER" link="%7B%22url%22:%22https:%2F%2Fatlantaphotographygroup.org%2Fshop%2Fwor kshop-developing-black-and-white-film-introduction-to-the-darkroom%2F%22\, %22title%22:%22Workshop:%20Cultivate%20New%20Audiences%20and%20Disseminate %20Your%20Work%22%7D" hide_with_empty_link="1" align="center"][us_separato r size="small"][/vc_column][/vc_row] LAST-MODIFIED:20260824T010959Z URL:https://atlantaphotographygroup.org/events/workshop-developing-black-a nd-white-film-introduction-to-the-darkroom/?utm_source=caldiscovery&utm_me dium=ics&utm_campaign=atlanta-ga X-SOURCE-NAME:Atlanta Photography Group X-SOURCE-URL:https://atlantaphotographygroup.org END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
