Rates and Fees

A non-refundable fee of $35 must accompany each application. Upon notification of acceptance into a workshop, a $250 deposit for each session, which will be applied to tuition, is required. All tuition, room and board fees are due and payable in advance. Checks should be made payable to Haystack. Foreign payments must be in US dollars payable in US funds.

Shop Fees

Shop fees cover the cost of materials for common use in a studio. In blacksmithing the shop fee will be approximately $100 per week, and in glassblowing approximately $250—$350 per week. In all other studios the fee may range from $5 to $100 per week. For clay workshops there will be a charge for clay in addition to the shop fee. Participants will be informed of the specific amount of their shop fee at the conclusion of their session. Supplies not provided for in the shop fee may be purchased at the school store.

Cancellations

If a cancellation is received at least 30 days before a session begins, deposits are refunded, less a $50 cancellation fee. For cancellations received between 30 and 15 days before a session, there is a $250 cancellation fee. No refunds will be issued for cancellations made within 14 days of the start of a session.

Accommodations

When indicating your preference for accommodations, be sure to include your first and second choices on the application form. While we make every effort to assign participants their first choice, depending on availability, we occasionally must assign their second.
