In the organiser's words
Quoted from haystack-mtn.org and checked on 5 September 2026. This is the organiser's description, reproduced as captured. It has not been through the evidence checks that produced the figures above.
Haystack states there is no fee to apply to the Open Studio Residency and no charge for tuition, room and board; participants are responsible for travel and materials. The residency runs for a full two weeks and takes approximately 50 participants. The 2026 cycle ran 24 May to 5 June with an application deadline of 2 February 2026, which has passed; this record is the archive of that cycle.
The money, to scale
No award, entry fee or cost estimate has been extracted for this record. The organiser's own description below may still name figures; those have not been through the evidence checks, and unstated here is not the same as free.
