Summer 2025 Closure

Photoland will be closed for the summer starting on June 9th, 2025. We will be open during second session for specific program use in our space; we will not have any regular open hours this summer.

We will be accepting print requests via email starting on July 28th for the duration of Summer Quarter Second Session. Once your request has been received, we will notify you what the turn around time will be; expect that the turnaround time will be longer since we do not have regular staff in the office during the summer.

Our color film processor has been taken offline for maintenance so we will not be accepting any color film processing requests this summer.

If you have questions or concerns, please email us at MediaServices@evergreen.edu and we will get back to you as soon as we can.
