Product Details & Size Guide
GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Bring a familiar name from craft-retail history into your everyday wardrobe with this A.C. Moore quarter-zip sweatshirt. Founded in Moorestown, New Jersey, in 1985, the company grew from one shop to 145 stores across the eastern United States. Its broad assortment served makers interested in scrapbooking, beading, knitting, paints, floral goods and seasonal crafts, while discount pricing helped define the shopping experience. This independent tribute honors those memories and the brand's regional story without implying an official connection.
A.C. Moore began in 1985 as a single arts and crafts store in Moorestown, New Jersey, founded by Jack Parker and William Kaplan. Parker, its president, had merchandising experience at Woolworth's, while Kaplan, its CEO, had worked in fashion production. The chain went public in October 1997 and grew to 145 stores across the eastern United States, with corporate headquarters in Berlin, New Jersey. Its merchandise ranged from scrapbooking, beading, knitting, rubber stamping and paints to floral goods, home decor, framing, children's crafts and seasonal items. The retailer became known for discounts and price competition. Sales peaked at $598 million in 2006 before declining. In 2011, supplier Sbar's and its affiliate Nicole Crafts acquired the company through a merger valued at $41 million; A.C. Moore became a Nicole Crafts subsidiary, and Sbar's seven stores were absorbed into the chain. On November 25, 2019, A.C. Moore announced plans to wind down and close all 145 stores, while selling selected leases, a distribution center and unspecified intellectual property assets to Michaels. All stores were closed by July 2020, when Michaels took over the distribution facility on A.C. Moore Drive in Winslow, New Jersey.
