RACINE — Fabric and craft store Joann, 2629 S. Green Bay Road, will be closing its doors.

All Joann Fabrics and Crafts locations across the U.S. will close down over the next several weeks, according to Joann Inc., just one month after filing Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

Generational spending shifts, a leveraged buyout, and a post-pandemic whiff have all contributed to the death of a beloved American institution.
