St Heliers Art & Craft Market is a market at 353 Tamaki Drive in St Heliers, Auckland. It has a 4.7 rating on Google.
A good art and craft market lets you meet the makers, see work up close and buy something made by hand, often at prices that suit a gift or a keepsake. Expect stalls of jewellery, ceramics, prints, woodwork, textiles and small paintings, and take time to ask makers how a piece was made, as their answers are part of the appeal. Regulars know that arriving early gives the best choice, that bringing cash and a reusable bag is wise, although many stalls take cards, and that makers are often open to custom orders. Check the market's days and times before you go, as many run on set weekend days and can be cancelled in bad weather. St Heliers sits on the waterfront on Tāmaki Drive, so a market visit pairs well with a walk along the beach and a coffee.
For anyone in St Heliers and the eastern bays, St Heliers Art & Craft Market on Tamaki Drive is a good place to find handmade gifts.
