Hobby Lobby is an American chain of arts and crafts stores founded in 1972 by David Green. The company is owned by the Green family and headquartered in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Green built Hobby Lobby on a foundation of religious beliefs and strict family values. The company’s stores are closed on Sundays, and every item sold must adhere to the Green family’s evangelical Christian values.
In 2014, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of Hobby Lobby in the case of Burwell v. Hobby Lobby Stores, Inc.
The case revolved around the question of whether or not the company could be required to provide contraception coverage to its employees as mandated by the Affordable Care Act. The Court ruled that Hobby Lobby could not be required to provide such coverage if it violated the company’s religious beliefs.
So, does Hobby Lobby sell mannequins? No, they do not. Mannequins are often used in stores to display clothing, but since all of the clothing sold at Hobby Lobby must adhere to the Green family’s evangelical Christian values, mannequins would likely be considered inappropriate for display.
