Dorchester Artisan Market
Following on from their hugely popular markets in Sherborne and Shaftesbury, Dorset Artisan Markets are bringing a fabulous collection of between 100-200 artisan traders to the streets of Dorchester. Stalls can be found along South Walks, South Street, Brewery Square and Borough Gardens.
All the traders are local and produce their own products or have unique collections for sale. There are food and drinks producers, crafts people, vintage clothing and vintage items for sale, plants, gardenalia and everything in between.
