UPDATE (February 25, 2025):
FORT WAYNE, Ind. (ADAMS) – All Joann Fabrics locations are being closed after the fabric and craft store chain was auctioned off to new owners in bankruptcy court. Originally about 500 of the 800 locations were going to be closed, but now all – including the Fort Wayne location close to Coldwater Road will close.
The company says there will be going-out-of-business sales at all locations. Joann got its start in Ohio back in the early 1940s.
