Haystack Mountain School of Crafts

Haystack has established several endowments over the years to support students, programs, and facilities.

Haystack’s scholarship endowment currently has 67 named funds. The school awards over 100 scholarships and fellowships annually for students to attend workshops. A named scholarship can be created with a gift of $25,000, and a fellowship can be created with a gift of $35,000.

 

Gifts to Haystack’s program endowment can support innovative projects, special programs for teens, symposia, and more.

A recent fund was created by Haystack Board of Trustees and Staff to celebrate Stuart Kestenbaum's twenty years as Director of Haystack Mountain School of Crafts. A set of limited edition broadsides was created as part of the tribute and to benefit the Stuart Kestenbaum Director's Endowment Fund.

 

"Receiving a monitorship (technical assistant) position at Haystack was the single most pivotal event in my life, shaping my path in becoming a potter. It is nice to be able to pass this gift on to others."
