3 Dots Downtown will host a “hootenanny” flea market and block party for the community on Tuesday, July 26. The “Pugh Street Shutdown” will include live music, DJs, food vendors, arts and crafts, and a beer garden.

The Pugh Street celebration begins at 5 p.m. and runs until 8 p.m.

3 Dots is a creative community space downtown located at 137 E. Beaver Ave. This week’s block party is part of the “Tuesdays on the Terrace” event series.

DJ Timmy Tats will kick off the event, followed by Ma’aM, a local country and punk rock band, at 6 p.m.

Opulence, a group of Penn State drag ambassadors, will be in attendance at the event. Axemann Brewery will sell beer, too.

Additionally, community members can look forward to seeing Happy Valley LaunchBox, artist John Vickers Jones, Prachi’s Bohemian Art, Naoko Maeshiba, Scotch Pours, Kai Bella Co, Cool School Vintage, Joe Pa’s Closet, Spotlight, State College Young Professionals, and the AIDS Resource Center.
