Hobby Lobby

Arts-and-crafts chain

Hobby Lobby is an American retail chain selling arts, crafts, and home décor supplies.

The company is known for its conservative Christian ownership, which led to a landmark 2014 Supreme Court case allowing closely held corporations to claim religious exemptions from federal mandates—specifically, contraception coverage requirements: The Hobby Lobby decision opened new debates about corporate religious liberty.
