It's been a year since my first visit to Gallery32, the artists' co-operative situated above the Fleetville Vintage Emporium opposite the Rats Castle Pub in Hatfield Road, St Albans. Last Saturday I went there for my regular shift at the gallery, and took some pieces along which I'm looking forward to seeing hung.

A lot has changed in a year - there are glass cabinets containing jewellery and other small items at the entrance, and a wide variety of greetings cards in the rack - plenty to tempt the casual visitor as well as the more committed customer!

There is even more art hung on the staircase now, and a few pictures are currently displayed on gridwall just inside the door of Debbie's studio, which itself gives people the opportunity to see an artist making something - even when she's not there, there is usually a work in progress to take a look at.

Alongside paintings, drawings and prints there are glass pieces and ceramics - truly something for everyone. And if you enjoy looking through vintage items there are many, many stalls in the Emporium itself. So if you're thinking of coming to take a look, I'd allow a little time . . . .

Looks like a fantastic space!
