SUMMER EVENING PROGRAM SERIES

Throughout the summer, Haystack faculty, visiting artists, technical assistants and staff share their inspirations, ideas, and work as part of our Evening Program Series.   The presentations include slide lectures, musical performances, and readings of their work by poets and writers.  Auctions are held at the end of each session, offering work donated by session participants. Unless otherwise noted, events are held at 8:00 pm in the Gateway auditorium, located at the entrance to campus.  Events are free and open to the public, with the exception of the Annual Summer Auction, July 18th, which is $10 admission. For more information, call (207) 348-2306.
