Darkroom

We are open by appointment only this fall.

Please note that orientations will not be offered in the Fall 2020 Semester. Students who were oriented in the past will retain access (see eligibility and requirements).

Make a Tech Consultation.

1. Fill out the brief campus access survey. This will help you choose your building, and ensure you have undergone covid testing prior to your visit.
2. Make a Technician Consultation.
3. Request a seat at least 48 hours in advance of coming to campus. After scheduling a technician consultation (or sometimes even during one), request a seat via getspace.newschool.edu in your relevant area.

Thank you for your patience and understanding! Please email us at erc@newschool.edu if you have any questions.
