Hobby Lobby is a go-to spot for crafting enthusiasts looking for supplies, and with the holiday weekend approaching, it’s important to be aware of their holiday hours.
Like many businesses, Hobby Lobby will have reduced hours on Memorial Day this year. The store will be open from 9 am until 5:30 pm on Monday, May 27, 2024. It’s worth noting that Hobby Lobby also has limited hours on Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve.
However, due to the company’s Christian roots, Hobby Lobby remains closed on Sundays. This decision is in line with the company’s founder, David Green, who opened the first Hobby Lobby store in 1970 in Oklahoma City alongside his wife, Barbara. Green, a pastor’s son, built the store from a small print shop into the craft emporium it is today.
Green’s faith has always been at the forefront of his business decisions, which is why the stores are closed on Sundays. Despite this, Hobby Lobby is open nearly every Monday through Saturday of the year, with the exception of certain holidays such as Easter, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Christmas Day, and Thanksgiving.
With over 970 locations across the United States, Hobby Lobby has become a household name for craft enthusiasts. David Green, whose net worth is estimated to be $14 billion, remains the current owner, although he has announced plans to step down from his ownership role in October 2022.
