ALUMNI & FRIENDS RETREAT TO HAYSTACK
September 26 - September 30, 2023

 

THE 2023 ALUMNI & FRIENDS RETREAT TO HAYSTACK IS NOW SOLD OUT! 

Many thanks to those who registered to attend!


We are once again venturing forth this fall for our 18th Annual Alumni & Friends Retreat at Haystack Mountain School of Crafts. It’s time to start dreaming about what you might make surrounded by pine trees, ocean waves, and some pretty good company.

 

WORKSHOPS:

- Bee Hotels and Sustainable Art (with Arielle Gordon Wilson '21)

- Bookbinding Basics (with Peter Madden '91)

- Monoprinting from a Gelatin Plate (with Janet Kawada '92)

- Postcards From Haystack: Architecture and Landscape (with Judith Swain '79)

- Twisted Wire Workshop (with William Vanaria '12) 

- Working in the Environment (with Janna Longacre)

 

ACCOMMODATIONS:

Room and meals are included in the registration fee...and the food is AMAZING!! In the Haystack tradition, rooms are assigned based on age and physical need. Please note that cabins are not heated and may involve climbing several steps depending on their location (both the Twin Cabin near Central Washrooms and Dorm options will involve climbing lots of steps)!

PRICING FOR 2023:

(Please note that registration costs for the 2023 Alumni & Friends Retreat to Haystack have increased from the previous year due to the inflation-based increase of the facility rental costs at Haystack)

 

Single Cabin with bath: $875

Single Cabin near central washroom: $800

Twin Cabin with bath (shared with one other attendee): $750

Twin Cabin near central washrooms (shared with one other attendee): $700

SCHOLARSHIP APPLICATIONS FOR MASSART ALUMNI: ARE NOW CLOSED!

Thank you to all who applied! 

 

The MassArt Alumni Association is able to offer 7 need-based scholarships (valued at $275 each) to alumni to attend this year's trip, thereby reducing the cost to either $425 to stay in a cabin near the central washroom or $475 to stay in a cabin with a bath. Applications are due Sunday, June 11th, by 11:59 PM (EDT), and recipients will be notified by June 26th. All MassArt alumni with financial needs are encouraged to apply, especially past applicants who were not previously awarded a scholarship. Past scholarship recipients are unfortunately ineligible for a 2023 scholarship.
