Haystack Mountain School of Crafts and Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture mark 75 and 80 years of artist residencies in Maine
November, 2026 | By: Lucky Platt | Photography: courtesy of Haystack Mountain School of Crafts. Three-quarters of a century ago, artists pioneered summer art school residency programs in Maine, places born not out of significant financial resources but out of necessity.

The influence and power that these political positions hold over your lives cannot be overstated. Sadly, it still seems that many students are unaware of the stakes and the candidates who lie in front of them. This is something that cannot continue. College students need to be aware of the world around them and the impact their decisions have — and they need to spread that awareness to others.
