&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;Welcome to the Cruces Creatives Crochet Club!&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center"&gt;Join us in the Textile Lab every Thursday from 4:30PM to 6:30PM.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center"&gt;Whether you are brand new to crocheting or an experienced crocheter, all are welcome.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center"&gt;Work on your own project, or take up one of our go-to projects, such as a beanie or scarf.&amp;nbsp; We will explore different patterns, styles, and methods of crocheting to meet the desires of those in attendance.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center"&gt;Bring your yarn and hooks, or make use of ours. Come every week, or show up when you want to.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;If you are not a member of Cruces Creatives, please make a donation. Non-members, please ring the door bell upon arrival as the doors are locked.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>Volunteer Pod - Friday (2026-05-22)</title>
      <description>&lt;p align="center" style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Volunteer Pod&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center" style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font&gt;Those who are interested in earning their membership for Cruces Creatives, or are interested in supporting our programs, or are looking to make new friends in our fantastic, artistic community are invited to participate in this volunteer pod.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center" style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font&gt;Tasks vary widely and training is always included.&amp;nbsp; Some common tasks include soldering LEDs and hobby motors, using the laser or Cricut to prepare project materials, light janitorial and organizing work, and plenty of cutting, counting and bundling!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center" style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font&gt;The efforts of our volunteers make all the difference in the programs we are able to offer.&amp;nbsp; We literally cannot do it without you!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center" style=""&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font color="#1D1C1D" style=""&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center" style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font&gt;The efforts of our volunteers make all the difference in the programs we are able to offer.&amp;nbsp; We literally cannot do it without you!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center" style=""&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font color="#1D1C1D" style=""&gt;Volunteer Pods are scheduled quarterly.&amp;nbsp; New volunteers must attend orientation.

&lt;p&gt;In a collaborative effort, participants work hands-on, each participating as they can.&amp;nbsp; Participants with higher levels of skills in a particular area can guide those with lower skill levels, and we'll make as many garments as we have the time, materials, and labor to make.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;This is a free program using donated materials. If you’d like to be involved, you can&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Help make clothing by sewing or assisting during the charitable crafting sessions&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Donate fabric or other sewing supplies by dropping them off at Cruces Creatives during business hours. The project can use yarn, fabric pieces of ½ a yard or longer, inner facings and linings, and other sewing supplies and notions.&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Donate new children's clothing.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;Ages:&amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;18 and older, or 14-17 with a parent or guardian present&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;About the facilitator:&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;Dina Honeycutt has been sewing and practicing other textile crafts for about 45 years, making clothing and toys for friends, family, and charitable projects. She especially enjoys cooperative work for its opportunities to share knowledge and skills.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center" style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font&gt;Tasks vary widely and training is always included.&amp;nbsp; Some common tasks include soldering LEDs and hobby motors, using the laser or Cricut to prepare project materials, light janitorial and organizing work, and plenty of cutting, counting and bundling!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center" style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font&gt;The efforts of our volunteers make all the difference in the programs we are able to offer.&amp;nbsp; We literally cannot do it without you!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center" style=""&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font color="#1D1C1D" style=""&gt;Volunteer Pods are scheduled quarterly.&amp;nbsp; New volunteers must attend orientation.

      <description>&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 30px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Basic Textile Area Safety Training&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
  &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This is the basic required safety course for using the Textiles Area. After completing this course you will be able to use the basic level sewing machines, cutti&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;ng tools, and pressing tools.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This class is intended to review safety guidelines, introduce housekeeping rules, and tour notions and materials.

  &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Payment is due at registration (online registration requires payment within 15 minutes in order to reserve space in the class). Cancellations are only available until 48 hours before class. Refunds are only available if class is properly cancelled.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Charitable Crafting Project (2026-06-20)</title>
      <description>&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;img src="https://crucescreatives.org/resources/Pictures/creatives9v2.jpg" alt="" title="" border="0"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center"&gt;The Charitable Crafting Project makes textiles for good causes.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In a collaborative effort, participants work hands-on, each participating as they can.&amp;nbsp; Participants with higher levels of skills in a particular area can guide those with lower skill levels, and we'll make as many garments as we have the time, materials, and labor to make.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;This is a free program using donated materials. If you’d like to be involved, you can&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Help make clothing by sewing or assisting during the charitable crafting sessions&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Donate fabric or other sewing supplies by dropping them off at Cruces Creatives during business hours. The project can use yarn, fabric pieces of ½ a yard or longer, inner facings and linings, and other sewing supplies and notions.&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Donate new children's clothing.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;Ages:&amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;18 and older, or 14-17 with a parent or guardian present&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;About the facilitator:&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;Dina Honeycutt has been sewing and practicing other textile crafts for about 45 years, making clothing and toys for friends, family, and charitable projects. She especially enjoys cooperative work for its opportunities to share knowledge and skills.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

      <description>&lt;p align="center" style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Volunteer Pod&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center" style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font&gt;Those who are interested in earning their membership for Cruces Creatives, or are interested in supporting our programs, or are looking to make new friends in our fantastic, artistic community are invited to participate in this volunteer pod.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center" style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font&gt;Tasks vary widely and training is always included.&amp;nbsp; Some common tasks include soldering LEDs and hobby motors, using the laser or Cricut to prepare project materials, light janitorial and organizing work, and plenty of cutting, counting and bundling!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center" style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font&gt;The efforts of our volunteers make all the difference in the programs we are able to offer.&amp;nbsp; We literally cannot do it without you!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center" style=""&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;font color="#1D1C1D" style=""&gt;Volunteer Pods are scheduled quarterly.&amp;nbsp; New volunteers must attend orientation. You can register for orientation via the Event Calendar. Please contact Eileen Condon at e.condon@crucescreatives.org.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <title>Textile Area Safety Training (2026-07-02)</title>
      <description>&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 30px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Basic Textile Area Safety Training&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;img src="https://crucescreatives.org/resources/Pictures/CC%20Sewing%20Machine.jpeg" alt="" title="" border="0" width="283.5" height="201"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
  &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This is the basic required safety course for using the Textiles Area. After completing this course you will be able to use the basic level sewing machines, cutti&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;ng tools, and pressing tools.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This class is intended to review safety guidelines, introduce housekeeping rules, and tour notions and materials. If you are hoping for additional sewing instruction Marty invites you to stay after class for questions or extra instruction.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Payment is due at registration (online registration requires payment within 15 minutes in order to reserve space in the class). Cancellations are only available until 48 hours before class. Refunds are only available if class is properly cancelled.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center"&gt;Whether you are brand new to crocheting or an experienced crocheter, all are welcome.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center" style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font&gt;Tasks vary widely and training is always included.&amp;nbsp; Some common tasks include soldering LEDs and hobby motors, using the laser or Cricut to prepare project materials, light janitorial and organizing work, and plenty of cutting, counting and bundling!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center" style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font&gt;The efforts of our volunteers make all the difference in the programs we are able to offer.&amp;nbsp; We literally cannot do it without you!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Charitable Crafting Project (2026-07-04)</title>
      <description>&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;img src="https://crucescreatives.org/resources/Pictures/creatives9v2.jpg" alt="" title="" border="0"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center"&gt;The Charitable Crafting Project makes textiles for good causes.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In a collaborative effort, participants work hands-on, each participating as they can.&amp;nbsp; Participants with higher levels of skills in a particular area can guide those with lower skill levels, and we'll make as many garments as we have the time, materials, and labor to make.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;This is a free program using donated materials. If you’d like to be involved, you can&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Help make clothing by sewing or assisting during the charitable crafting sessions&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Donate fabric or other sewing supplies by dropping them off at Cruces Creatives during business hours. The project can use yarn, fabric pieces of ½ a yard or longer, inner facings and linings, and other sewing supplies and notions.&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Donate new children's clothing.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;Ages:&amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;18 and older, or 14-17 with a parent or guardian present&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;About the facilitator:&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;Dina Honeycutt has been sewing and practicing other textile crafts for about 45 years, making clothing and toys for friends, family, and charitable projects. She especially enjoys cooperative work for its opportunities to share knowledge and skills.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Charitable Crafting Project (2026-07-18)</title>
      <description>&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;img src="https://crucescreatives.org/resources/Pictures/creatives9v2.jpg" alt="" title="" border="0"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center"&gt;The Charitable Crafting Project makes textiles for good causes.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In a collaborative effort, participants work hands-on, each participating as they can.&amp;nbsp; Participants with higher levels of skills in a particular area can guide those with lower skill levels, and we'll make as many garments as we have the time, materials, and labor to make.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;This is a free program using donated materials. If you’d like to be involved, you can&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;Help make clothing by sewing or assisting during the charitable crafting sessions&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Donate fabric or other sewing supplies by dropping them off at Cruces Creatives during business hours. The project can use yarn, fabric pieces of ½ a yard or longer, inner facings and linings, and other sewing supplies and notions.&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Donate new children's clothing.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;Ages:&amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;18 and older, or 14-17 with a parent or guardian present&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;About the facilitator:&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;Dina Honeycutt has been sewing and practicing other textile crafts for about 45 years, making clothing and toys for friends, family, and charitable projects. She especially enjoys cooperative work for its opportunities to share knowledge and skills.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Textile Area Safety Training (2026-07-30)</title>
      <description>&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 30px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Basic Textile Area Safety Training&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;img src="https://crucescreatives.org/resources/Pictures/CC%20Sewing%20Machine.jpeg" alt="" title="" border="0" width="283.5" height="201"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
  &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This is the basic required safety course for using the Textiles Area. After completing this course you will be able to use the basic level sewing machines, cutti&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;ng tools, and pressing tools.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This class is intended to review safety guidelines, introduce housekeeping rules, and tour notions and materials. If you are hoping for additional sewing instruction Marty invites you to stay after class for questions or extra instruction.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;em&gt;Payment is due at registration (online registration requires payment within 15 minutes in order to reserve space in the class). Cancellations are only available until 48 hours before class. Refunds are only available if class is properly cancelled.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
