The banner hanging on the front of the old AC Moore craft store in Washington Township confirms what we had all been hoping for… Michaels Crafts will be taking over the location! The banner also states they are accepting applications (online).

It was previously widely reported that locally based AC Moore was closing all stores, and a portion of their operations and stores would be taken over by Michaels. But a clear list of stores has not been presented, as far as I know.

There was some when questions amongst residents on this Township store, as Michaels previously had a store not too far away on Cross Keys Road (Sicklerville) which they closed, and a few years ago a Hobby Lobby opened in nearby Gloucester Township. But let’s focus on the positive… Michaels is coming!

This new Michaels store is a big win for the shopping center and Washington Township, as the adjacent Bed, Bath and Beyond is closing. But with the popular Edge Fitness and other retailers in the center, things should should be looking up again!
