we love our community
As one of the first businesses in Peoria's renovated Warehouse District, Crafted has always been committed to giving back to the community that has shown us so much love.
drink to donate
Since opening our doors in 2020 Crafted has donated over $12,000 to local charities, fifty cents at a time - through our Drink to Donate program.
​
In 2025 our team are picking charities that are close to their hearts. For May 2025 Crystal has chosen Product of the Project.
​
"For May, I wanted to highlight the great work POP is doing for our community! I’m always inspired by people coming together to make their community better - and that is exactly what POP exemplifies. Not only do they host some really cool events including an annual toy drive, turkey drive, and a back to school celebration, they also lead a social-emotional learning curriculum and workforce development program for our community’s young people. Since back-to-school is just a few months away, our contribution this month will go towards this event! Also, check out the work of their regular partners DIGIM and YANI Collective (if you aren’t already familiar). Some fun things are happening this summer!"

community night
Every Thursday 4:30-9:30pm we aim to foster community by offering our studio as a free-to-use third place for anyone looking for a table and chair to craft at. Bring in sewing, knitting, painting, anything you can carry! Or you are always welcome to try one of our crafts. No purchase necessary and no reservations required.
silent book club
Every third Monday we host Peoria's Silent Book Club, organized by Amy Ashley. At this community event enjoy craft cocktails and mocktails, mingle from 6-6:30, and then silently read in the company of others from 6:30-8:00pm.
​
Enjoy community time without so much social pressure!

give back with snacks!
Now offering lunch trays full of snacks!
Choose from a variety of options including choices for our gluten free, dairy-free, and vegan friends.

For each tray sold $1 goes to No Kid Hungry, they use the power of their community networks to turn each dollar into ten meals for children dealing with hunger in the United States.
