Practical Projects at the Arden 11/12 (In-Person)

Whether you love to bedazzle, crochet, or knit, bring your craft project and join us for “Practical Projects”! This event is the perfect opportunity to work on your favorite crafts while learning new skills and sharing tips with fellow enthusiasts.

To prepare: Please bring your craft project, including all supplies you might need. We will have two people who know how to sew present to help you fix buttons, mend holes or give advice on simple sewing, if you’re interested.

Meet up: Please meet in the third floor club room at the Arden. A key is needed to enter the building, so please message the Arden Community Whatsapp group upon arrival if you’re not an Arden resident, so you can be let in.

Weather Cancellation: In case of unsafe weather conditions, an announcement will be made on Whatsapp at least 2 hours prior to the start of the in-person event.

Parking: Limited free parking is available in the Arden garages, but a parking pass is required. Please email annae@ourstompingground.org to reserve a parking pass in advance of this event. There is additional paid parking at the Huntington Metro Station nearby. Your vehicle is at a high risk of being towed if parked on the street!

Contact: We will communicate changes of plans via Whatsapp, so please join the Arden Community Whatsapp group to receive important event updates.

Accommodations: At OSG, our staff are not direct service providers, so we ask that each participant attending an event brings any personal support they may need for their well-being and engagement. This may include, but is not limited to, caregivers, communication partners, or mobility aids. That said, with prior notice, we can arrange group-wide accommodations during event planning. These might include ensuring wheelchair-accessible routes or selecting allergen-safe menus. Additional accommodations are available upon request, though they may not be listed here. To discuss your specific needs and help us make our events more inclusive, please contact us at claudet@ourstompingground.org with the subject line “Accommodation Request.”

*Note: Sign-up is mandatory. Be sure to RSVP so we know to expect you.
