Chance The Rapper hosting 'Night at the Museum' family event next month
CHICAGO (CBS) – A popular Chicago rapper and Grammy winner is giving back by using arts and education to empower kids.
South Side's own Chance the Rapper announced Wednesday that a big party is coming to one of the city's favorite cultural destinations.
Chance will be hosting "A Night at the Museum" on Dec. 16 at the Museum of Science and Industry.
The fourth annual family-focused event will feature music, access to the exhibits, and a clothing drive for the homeless.
"We like to create experiences for those in need. An opportunity to get out of the house. To get some food entertainment," Chance said. "We like doing something for free for people who don't get access to stuff. It's been something close to my heart, it's good to see all those families smiling just connecting during the coldest part of the year."
It's just one of the events chance's non-profit Social Works does during their Warmest Winter Initiative.
The organization also helps at warming centers, free haircuts, food giveaways, and clothing drives in January.
