海斯特山脈工藝學校位於美國緬因州大西洋上的鹿島(Deer Isle)。Haystack成立於1950年,是一所森林海洋環繞的國際工藝學校。其校園內頗負盛名的特色建築是由美國建築師愛德華·拉拉比·巴恩斯(Edward Larrabee Barnes)所設計,該建築融合鄉土風情及當地材料,被公認為美國現代主義建築象徵及建築傑作之一。Haystack最初即為藝術研究及工作室的目的所成立,在當時是對教育和社區的一次實驗:沒有永久的教職員工或全日制學生,也是一所沒有頒發任何證書或學位的學校。它提供開放工作室進駐計劃、展覽、巡演及藝術家分享會等,Haystack最初的目標是希望傳授精細工藝,並進行與工藝有關的研究與開發,如今歡迎來自科學、文學、音樂和視覺藝術等各個領域的訪問藝術家和學者,並定期舉辦討論會和論壇。Haystack同時在工藝界扮演著智庫的角色,除了出版年度專刊外,每年夏季亦組織與工藝相關的各種主題會議和專題討論會,並與重要的國家機構合作,在更廣泛的脈絡下針對工藝做研究。Haystack擁有用於鐵工、陶瓷、纖維、玻璃、繪圖、金屬、木工和Fablab的專業工作室,提供藝術家進駐計劃之外亦開設夏季短期的工作坊課程給當地社群及居民。其Fablab實驗室亦與美國其他頂尖的Fablab工作室如MIT、哈佛大學設計研究生院、弗吉尼亞大學(Virginia)等合作交流。Haystack期許人們來到這裡發展並發現自己的技能,並鼓勵對工藝和想像力的探索、培養創造力並讓人重新審視自身不同的可能性。

The Haystack Mountain School of Craft is located on the Atlantic Ocean in Deer Isle. Founded in 1950, the school's award-winning campus was designed by noted American architect Edward Larrabee Barnes. Originally a research and studio program in the arts, Haystack's mission was to teach fine craftsmanship, and carry on research and development in connection with the crafts. People come to Haystack to develop and discover skills, to explore imaginations of the crafts, to nurture their creativity, and to push into the unknown. Haystack offers open studio residency programs, exhibitions, tours, artist presentations, and so on, and it also functions as a 'think-tank' in looking at craft -- publishing annual monographs and organizing a variety of conferences and symposia, collaborating with important national institutions, and carrying on research in a broad context of the crafts. Haystack has professional studios for ironwork, ceramics, fiber, glass, drawing, metal, woodwork, and Fablab. In additions to residency programs, it also offers short-term workshops in the summer.
