Alternate Histories in Greenfield is teaming up with Golden Age Beer in Homestead for a tribute
to Stevie Wonder on Saturday, July 12. Hotter Than July: A Free Celebration of Stevie
Wonder will feature local vendors, Grow Pittsburgh, food, drinks, kids story time, and plenty of
music.
Says Matt Buchholz, co-organizer of the event, “2025 is not only Stevie’s 75th birthday, it’s also
the 45th anniversary of his seminal HOTTER THAN JULY album. So what better excuse to have a big neighborhood party?! This has been something I’ve been wanting to do for a long time, and working with my friends at Golden Age we’re finally making it happen.”
