Sprouts & Shutters: Richard's Arts And Crafts Closing, Moving to San Ramon

The craft store will be leaving Livermore but staying in the Tri-Valley.

After 20 years in Livermore, Richard's Arts and Crafts store will be closing its doors. Manager Judi Walters says they will likely be out of the current location by the beginning of April but was happy to say that owner Richard Delfosse intends to reopen the store in San Ramon in June.

"We are moving to San Ramon in the Marketplace at Bollinger and Alcosta," Walters said. "Hopefully this will be a great move. I love working for this family."

According to Walters, the store has a sale going on to help them clear out their warehouse merchandise. 

Walters added, "Our new place will be all shiny and new." 

Richard's offers not only supplies for arts and crafts but also classes and demonstrations. Richard's can be found at 4502 Las Positas Road in Livermore. The Richard's in Alamo is located at 225-A Alamo Plaza and has been open for 30 years, according the Richard's website.
