With the semester coming to a close and finals week just around the corner, sometimes you really need to escape all the schoolwork for a little and give your brain a rest. If you’re like us, nothing helps relax the mind while also sparking inspiration more than a day of shopping … well you’re in luck because Pop Up Ave is returning to State College just before finals week.
It’s Back!
Pop Up Ave is a free event that will be held on Saturday, April 27, at the 100 block of South Fraser Street. Stop by anytime between 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. and check out everything this amazing event has to offer.
So Much To Shop
Returning to Pop Up Ave, you’ll find handcrafted jewelry at vendors such as Amanda Leilani Designs Molly au Contraire. You can also shop at Mixtape Paper Co., which sells 100% recycled cards with bold, retro designs and Moonrise Candle Co. which sells naturally fragranced and simply aesthetic candles.

Shoppers will also discover new vendors to Pop Up Ave this spring such as CieraMade, KaibellaCo and Zoils & Pigments.
The Perfect Day
When you need a break from shopping, take advantage of the food options available as well. Super Duper Café, Bonnie Blue’s BBQ and The Cakeshop by Tati will all be serving dishes that will get your mouth watering.

I have recently started a website, the info you offer on this site has helped me greatly. Thank you for all of your time & work.
I couldn’t resist commenting
Hmm is anyone else experiencing problems with the pictures on this blog loading? I’m trying to figure out if its a problem on my end or if it’s the blog. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for the sensible critique. Me & my neighbor were just preparing to do a little research about this. We got a grab a book from our area library but I think I learned more clear from this post. I am very glad to see such wonderful information being shared freely out there.
My wife and i have been comfortable when Emmanuel managed to conclude his basic research while using the precious recommendations he gained out of your web pages. It is now and again perplexing just to possibly be giving freely helpful hints which usually some other people have been trying to sell. Therefore we realize we need you to appreciate because of that. These illustrations you have made, the simple site menu, the relationships you make it easier to instill – it’s all amazing, and it’s really leading our son and the family understand that subject is brilliant, and that is rather important. Many thanks for all the pieces!
Perfectly written articles, Really enjoyed reading.
