I like how Bill gets Vaughn to open the beer for him.
Once a darkroom tech, always a darkroom tech?

...and I have been a workshop assistant enough times...
Hard to believe Bill Owens was 80 years old in that video, he seemed a lot younger. Maybe I'd better start drinking beer!

He is distilling now -- publishes a magazine on it for people getting started in the art. Mighty fine whiskey!
Thanks Vaughn for the sad news. A wonderful place and exhibitions. The Dick Garrod show a number of years ago was a highlight in my viewing experience.

I found out today that there is still hope that PhotoCentral might exist in one form or another -- but we'll have to see how things shake out after the world regains some balance. Nothing remains the same and the situation is unsure for the time being...which is a lot better than I had originally thought.
bummer. so many places closing up. did they retire?

Covid temporarally closed the program down, but I do not know it what form it will rise up again when darkroom work is considered a safe enough group activity. Kate and Geir have moved north, so it will depend on the interest and HARD (rec. district) on where it goes next.
Sad to learn of the possible end of another classical photography resource.
Happily, San Francisco Parks and Recreation still operates its photo center, the Harvey Milk Photo Center. We used this center whlle I was a Teaching Assistant for a photography course at the University of San Francisco.
