B&W self-develop your roll with the Penumbra Foundation 

Earlier this year, Lomography launched a new B&W Kino Film Line in 35mm and 120 format, which is cut from old stocks of a cinematic emulsion, produced by a legendary German company, these classic panchromatic films are unapologetically analog –– a piece of history itself. Participants will receive a roll of B&W Kino Film to test during the workshop and capture the streets of New York on this special cinematic emuslion. 

LomoAmigo Jonathan Higbee is a master of street photography and will take participants out into the streets of Manhattan, to share advice, experience and his point of view. 
For a full circle, participants will learn how to self-develop their Berlin Kino roll with Sam Dole of the Penumbra Foundation. 
Fee: $75 (film and development included)
Participants will be provided with Lomography B&W Kino Film as well as all the materials needed for the development.
