Our Darkroom is Falling Apart- We need help

We have holes in the cieling of our darkroom. The landlord will do nothing. We have been planning our move for some time and this only makes it all the more urgent to move to a much larger, more accommodating space. We want to expand our offerings along with this. Help us out!

Pics soon.

Its that easy. Just stop by the fourth floor at 1000 N. Milwaukee between these hours and someone will be there for you. Look for “COC Darkroom” on the intercom to get buzzed up.
