Escaping the heat and the rain doesn't have to mean hiding at home. This week, Bangrak's landmark General Post Office becomes a refuge for collectors, makers and curious browsers as JAMm Craft and More returns with over 100 stalls packed with ceramics, jewellery, vinyl, artwork and one-of-a-kind treasures.

Now in its fourth edition, the two-day indoor fair takes over the historic building's main hall with a sprawling marketplace that celebrates craftsmanship in all its forms. Handmade ceramics sit alongside vintage collectables, illustrated prints, textiles, furniture, books and decorative objects, while crates of vinyl records and shelves of second-hand curiosities reward those willing to dig around a little.

The variety is a big part of the draw. There showcases contemporary craft, another are nostalgic finds and personal collections – and scattered throughout, independent makers bring out jewellery, bags, pet accessories, handkerchiefs and rare handmade pieces that rarely turn up in conventional retail spaces.

Shopping aside, there are workshops to join too, covering everything from cups and tableware to home decor and handcrafted creations, plus live drawing sessions where you can watch artists at work. The whole thing sits somewhere between a community gathering, a creative showcase and a collector's market – and it's a pretty good way to spend a rainy July afternoon.

JAMm Craft and More takes place on July 4-5 from midday to 8pm at the Main Hall of Bangrak's General Post Office, with free admission throughout the weekend.
