West Ashley Getting an Arts and Crafts Store

Joann Fabric and Craft Store to open in Ashely Crossing Shopping Center in Spring 2013

West Ashley residents have lamented the lack of an arts and crafts store close by for years, but early in 2013 that won't be the case any longer.

Joann Fabric and Craft Stores is currently building a new store in West Ashley in the Ashley Crossing Shopping Center at the intersection of Magwood Road and the Glenn McConnell Parkway.

The company carries a wide range of arts and crafts supplies from fabrics to scrapbooking material to paints and canvasses and everything in between.
