On December 3 for Giving Tuesday, both SciTech Hands On Museum and The Venue will open their doors for a night-of giving party to both encourage donations and thank donors. 

From 5 to 8 p.m., SciTech, located at 18 W. Benton St., will have computers readily available for guests to donate on the IL Give website. Along with free museum entry, it will be a fun way to celebrate giving in Fox Valley. 

The Venue, 21 S. Broadway, is partnering with Batavia’s Water Street Studios to host a Giving Tuesday benefit concert from 6 to 9 p.m. Tickets are free, info HERE. 

Yetee Station, a new arcade that is soon-to-open at 102 E. Galena Blvd. in downtown Aurora, will open for Giving Tuesday from 1 to 9 p.m. with proceeds from a $10 all play donation going to Aurora Rotary Club
