Haystack’s Open Studio Residency fosters a dynamic exchange of ideas and creative processes among peers with two weeks of studio time and an opportunity to work in a community of makers. The Residency supports approximately 50 participants—from the craft field and other creative disciplines—who have uninterrupted time to work in its studios (blacksmithing, ceramics, fiber, graphics, metals, wood, and Fab Lab) to develop ideas and experiment in various media. Residents may choose to work in one particular studio or move among them depending on their interests and the nature of their work.
