What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors praise The Light Factory for its exceptional customer service, high-quality photography classes, and diverse exhibitions featuring both local and international artists. The community darkroom is a significant asset for photographers. However, some reviews suggest that the art selection might not appeal to everyone, and past struggles with support and location changes have been noted.
"It was such a great experience from beginning to end, starting with the exceptional customer service when I was given great advice over the phone about which size would be best for my space, what color cord would be best etc. It looks just as great as I thought it would and was easy to hang. Highly recommend this company!"

"I've been a huge fan of this place for the last 15 years.
Amazing exhibits by real heavy hitters national and international--but they still make room for an annual show of their members' work (which contains a lot of great local work) and the occasional short run student show.
As a photographer, I've really enjoyed the classes and workshops. They have a wide variety--from beginner classes with basic dSLR to traditional darkroom and alt processing."
