In this special episode of the Craft Industry Alliance podcast, we are talking with a variety of industry players about the second bankruptcy of JOANN Fabrics including:
- Grace Dobush, our business reporter for our corporate newsletter Craft Industry Insider
- Molly Hamilton from Folkwear Patterns
- Aaron Leventhal, former CEO and owner of Hero Arts
- Venture capital investor Elizabeth Caven
- And Kansas City-based fashion designer Whitney Manney
We start with Grace giving us an overview of the current situation at JOANN (January 2025), go through 10-15 minute interviews with each guest, and wrap up with Grace as we look towards what the future might be like for JOANN.
We hope you enjoy this slightly different format for the show!
