General Public Pricing and Available Services

Members of the general public who are not Evergreen affiliated, (meaning they are not a current student, staff, or faculty member at The Evergreen State College) are welcome to use Photoland’s facilities and services! We call these patrons “community members” and they contribute greatly to our vibrant learning community. 

Community members must pay a fee to use Photoland’s facilities. 

There are two options for passes to use Photoland’s facilities:

  • Daily Pass Fee – $30 per day
  • Quarterly Pass Fee – $150 per quarter

To purchase a pass, please stop into Photoland in person or email us at photolandstaff@evergreen.edu and we will assist you in getting that set up.

Community members have access to most of the facilities within Photoland, as well as our paid services. We offer paid services for digital printing and film processing; for more information on our services, please visit the links below. All  services linked below come at an additional cost not included in the daily or quarterly pass.

In-person facilities that community members can gain access to include:

  • Digital Imaging Studio
  • Black & White Film Processing
  • Black & White Darkroom
  • Print Finishing

Some of these spaces require proficiencies for use, such as the black and white film processing area and the black and white darkroom. Even if you had a proficiency for one of these spaces prior to the pandemic, you will have to retake these proficiencies prior to using the spaces. We offer proficiencies in these spaces three times per quarter (except for Summer). Reach out to us to inquire and sign up!  

OUR SERVICES, EQUIPMENT, AND FACILITIES MUST NEVER BE USED FOR WORK THAT IS FOR PROFIT! This means you can not use our printers to make prints that will be for sale, you can not process film or work in the darkroom on photos that someone has paid you to take, and you can not use our computers or cameras for paid photography or editing.

In order to use Photoland’s facilities and services, you must read and sign our community member agreement which indicates that you understand and agree to abide by the policies for community member access.

If you have any questions regarding the above information or just about our space and facilities, please email us at photolandstaff@evergreen.edu.
