JOANN IS CLOSING ALL STORES All stores, every single one is closing down! This is a tragedy to any creative person out there! I hate that this had happened and I hate that we allowed it to happen! We should have supported the stores more and not... — read more 

Is there a list of closing stores?

This is bad, bad, bad news. 500 stores to close out of 800. I don't see this playing out well for anyone at all. Such a shame all... — read more 

Owings Mills closing is a travesty of the highest order. I don't think I can ever forgive Joann's bigwigs for closing such a beloved store that always brought in good business. Shameful behavior... — read more 

Joann is really struggling this year and this is only just the beginning. I'm legitimately afraid to see what else is going to happen in... — read more 

Joann is filing for bankruptcy once more. I'm personally a bit disappointed. I hate seeing how Joann has become so mismanaged that I can barely recognize the company I knew from just a few years... — read more 

This is how Joann will start out the new year. The morale at Joann stores must be at all time low. These stores were closed as a part of a routine, to optimize business. I have doubts that Joann will stop at closing just these stores. Closed... — read more 

Wow, is Joann doing alright? This isn't the first store this year that is closing. I have doubts that it will be the last too... I wonder what the future looks like for Joann in 2025. How many of their stores will face the same fate as the 3200... — read more 

This is a deep loss for our little arts and crafts community. I know my little group deeply enjoyed our weekly outings to Joann. Knowing its last day is January 12 hurts a... — read more 

And you can quote me on that - JoAnn is the best there is.

So what's the state of JoAnn basically? Can JoAnn continue to run like this, basically until it runs out of steam? More should be done to ensure the stability of the brand and the company. It shouldn't just rest on its laurels and ignoring everything... — read more 

Perhaps it would be for the best if there was some sort of reorganization at the top for Joann or something. If not then I'm all out of ideas. I'm not sure what else could guarantee the company's stability in the coming years. Some of the news has... — read more 

JoAnn Hutchinson store - will it shutter this year? It's already August so I don't see how it can close so abruptly this year, usually there's some news about stuff like that. Like they would announce the store being axed a few months before the... — read more 

Will the higherups realize now that things need to change or are they really okay with things as they are? The closings and stuff? I'm not okay with that...

No, no closing will happen here - though it came close to it once. The store was underperforming at a point and folks seriously worried that it could be closing soon but management did the right thing and acted like true leaders. This is why the... — read more 

Thoughts?

I can't believe I have lived long enough to see JOANN of all companies run out of business. I don't think I appreciate that achievement. I like JOANN and seeing it fall brings me no... — read more 

When did this happen? I never knew that JOANN closed at all. I'm d-mbfounded...

I believe it closed last month, yes? Sad either way.

How disappointing! JOANN is closing their Wooster location at 3786 Burbank Rd. I believe that this was a bad thing for JOANN to do. The store can still be restored and improved. Why close it? Please, give it a second chance and don't close it on... — read more 

Though no information has been released, keep an open ear for this locations closure within the next 2 years

Hands down. This is their best store.

How can I know if it will be closing or not?

Yes or no?

Wonderful store gone too early!

Everyone I know deeply adores this JoAnn and it would be a bad thing for sure if it ended up closing at any point. :(

Management changes or something must have happened since this store isn't as good as it was before. Back a few years ago it was the best Joann store in Ohio but these days wow... would never say that about it now.

This store's unfortunate and permanent closing is a huge loss for all of us. The closing is just tragic in a way, I think Pasadena doesn't have a lot of good arts and crafts stores anymore and Jo-Ann has as a company always has stores that are... — read more 

Unfortunate as it is, Joann Fabrics has decided to close the store in the Cranberry Mall, ceasing all operations once the deed is done. I assume the store underperformed in some way or another to justify this decision. It will close on May 14th. — read more 

Is there any signs or whatever that indicate whether this JoAnn will be closing any time in the future? I haven't expected the previous closings at all so I have to ask.

They are closing this store this week. To bad, it was one of my favorites in Marion. One can still buy JoAnn's stuff online, but I really hate online shopping.

Joann is gonna be replaced by an Aldi next week once the closing finalises. Cockeysville, MD store was a failure but this doesn't mean that Joann itself is struggling. I don't think the company will face any major trouble this year.

JoAnn is closing in Marion too at the Marion Centre mall. It's closing on January 15th, next month. I wonder how many more will close next... — read more 

I'm not reassured by these news at all. At least two stores are closing and who's to say that the folks at Jo-Ann Fabrics will stop at two? Why not five, or ten more closings? Very worrying news. I think liquidation sales have started already but... — read more 

These are such sad tidings. Bridgeport's sole JOANN store is closing and the liquidation sale will start in late November. Only three JOANN stores will be left with this closing in West Virginia. Let's hope they won't be closing in 2023 too. That... — read more 

This is a sad thing that happened a couple of years ago. The Jo-Ann was so wonderful and I always appreciated that it was there. Now, it's gone and I'm inconsolable.
