Dear Michaels Makers:





We appreciate your continued support and understanding during this difficult period. Our top priority remains the safety and well-being of you, our Team Members, and the communities in which we serve.

As our environment continues to evolve in these unprecedented times, we want to share with you the latest steps we are taking to keep you and our Team Members safe. Below is a recap of some of the company’s actions to adapt to the new operating environment.

Offering curbside, contactless pickup of products by simply making a purchase online or through the Michaels app, calling the store when you arrive, and having a team member bring your purchase to your car. We also continue to offer traditional online shopping for those who want to have it delivered to their home. Please use our Find A Store locator to check for the most up-to-date store hours and availability in your local area.

We continue to look to support our communities and frontline healthcare workers experiencing shortages of the personal protective equipment necessary for their role in the fight against COVID-19. A donation of a $1 million worth of fabric – enough to make nearly 750,000 masks – was made to more than 70 organizations and sewing groups across North America to help with mask making efforts. We also donated 500 N95 masks to the staff at Baylor Scott & White Foundation-Irving Irving, Texas, and will soon be donating another 4,000 N95 masks to a hospital in the northeast.

We have also had to make the difficult decision to temporarily close a significant number of our stores. At Michaels, we continuously evaluate our operations to ensure they are in accordance with government mandates. Where it is permitted to operate our stores, we continue to serve our customers with reduced hours and staff, and curbside pick-up of online orders. You can use our Find A Store locator to check for the most up-to-date store hours in your local area and can continue to order home delivery via michaels.com.

We value greatly our relationship with you. We place our customers at the center of everything we do and believe strongly we can continue to serve your needs both now and in the future.
