The View from Here

Collected here for the first time are more than three dozen observations made over the years by the Director of the Haystack Mountain School of Crafts in the the school newsletter, Gateway. Also included are the texts from three keynote speeches Mr. Kestenbaum has presented. To quote author and critic, Akiko Busch, “Stuart Kestenbaum’s quiet observations offer an almost tangible knowledge... a quality of lightness, invention, and luminous intuition that give his voice its singular resonance.”
