Event information

Date & time

11.04.202612.04.2026
Photo developed with natural materials.
You need these natural ingredients to create a natural photo developer.

On Saturday, April 11 and Sunday, April 12, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., the workshop "Photo development - completely natural" at the Municipal Art Collections of the City of Salzgitter invites you to rediscover photography.

During the analog film workshop, participants will have the opportunity to familiarize themselves with sustainable film development. Together we will produce a developing chemistry from purely natural materials, which will then be used for the environmentally friendly development of 35mm black and white films. The necessary materials (ivy, tree bark...) are sought out in the nearby castle park. This ecological approach offers alternative methods of photography production and surprises with unconventional image results.

The workshop is suitable for beginners and photography enthusiasts who want to make their creative work more sustainable. No previous knowledge is required. If you have an analog camera, you are welcome to bring it along.
