Saturday afternoon Christmas craft market with independent maker The Ampthill Alchemist among the stallholders.
A Christmas craft market is coming to Marshalswick Community Centre on Saturday 5 December, with independent maker The Ampthill Alchemist among the stallholders. It's a Saturday afternoon affair, running from 14:00 to 17:00, so it's one of those events you can drift into and out of rather than committing your whole day to. If you're in St Albans and looking to get some Christmas shopping sorted, it's a handy spot to pick up a few things from local makers in one go.
The Ampthill Alchemist will be there with their own stall, alongside other independent makers. For those who haven't come across them before, they're one of the makers you'll find at these kinds of local craft fairs, and this is a good chance to see what they've been working on and buy directly from them. If you've already got a few of their things at home, it's a decent opportunity to see what's new before the Christmas rush really kicks in.

The market is held at Marshalswick Community Centre, at 481 The Ridgeway, St Albans, AL4 9TU. It's a community space, so it's a straightforward, local setting rather than a big commercial hall. It's open from 14:00 to 17:00 on Saturday 5 December, giving you a three-hour window to wander through the stalls and pick up whatever you're after. If you're planning to make a proper afternoon of it, that's plenty of time to browse without having to rush.
