The Third Thursday events in Downtown Manhattan came to a close with a street festival filled with entertainment.
Live music, vendors and artists lined the 300 and 400 blocks of Poyntz Avenue, to bring the Third Thursday season to a close.
The final Third Thursday brought crowd out to watch the stein hoisting competition. Competitors had to hold stein full of water at shoulder height with the arm extended in front of them.
Children of all ages finished painting the last mural in front of the Downtown Manhattan office space.
The Box Turtles performed on stage in the middle of Poyntz Avenue for the crowd before moving inside Finn's to close out the night.
