Whether you’re an arts and crafts aficionado, a baker, a jewelry maker or a painter, the new flagship A.C. Moore store on the corner of Broad and Chestnut is about to become your new favorite place.
Tomorrow is its grand opening; store hours will be Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 9 p.m.; Saturday, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.; and Sunday, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Aside from its extensive retail offerings, it has a custom framing studio, a classroom that will offer art demonstrations and even serve as a place to host birthday parties for kids, and an in-house floral arranger who will put together custom bouquets free of charge (with the purchase of supplies).

Antony Piperno, A.C. Moore’s chief merchandising and marketing officer, says of their decision to open their flagship store in Philly:
“There’s no other retail experience like this in downtown Philadelphia right now, so we’re incredibly excited to celebrate the opening of our Center City location. From the vibrant location on the Avenue of the Arts and the best selection of arts and crafts supplies and home decor, to unmatched customer service and prices, it’s going to be hard to leave this store without your fill of creative inspiration.”
