Alice In Chains have announced that they will be honored at Seattle’s MoPOP museum, where there is a Chris Cornell memorial statue outside. AIC announced, “We’re excited to announce that we are being honored at this year’s @MoPOP Founders Award on December 1, 2020. The nonprofit museum’s annual fundraiser will be streamed free to the public, featuring special performances by us, & many more. http://MoPOP.org/FoundersAward for more info.” In other Alice In Chains news, their producer recently revealed what Gene Simmons said about Billy Corgan going bald.

MoPOP said, “This one-night-only benefit will feature unforgettable performances by Alice in Chains, as well as an acclaimed lineup of guest and youth musicians who will put their own twist on some of the band’s most iconic songs.

For the first time ever, this highly anticipated annual event will be moving from MoPOP’s Sky Church to an online platform where it will be accessible and open for all, giving pop culture lovers across the world an opportunity to connect and become a part of our creative community.

Sign up to be the first hear to about streaming options, artist announcements, exclusive content and more!”

“While this year’s Founders Award will stream for free and be open to all, like many arts organizations around the country, MoPOP has been hit hard by the COVID-19 crisis. As a community supported non-profit museum and in-person gathering space, closing our doors was especially difficult.

All proceeds raised through Founders Award will provide relief by allowing us to continue to serve our community, reach young people, and preserve our shared pop culture history during this difficult time.
