Beats in the stacks: the Tay Keith Music Lab, a Lakeland jam circle, and board games at the Hi Tone

Hey Memphis 👋 It's Monday. Fall officially arrives tomorrow evening, which summer seems to have taken as a challenge: 98 today, a heat index up to 104, and a stray storm possible after 5. The relief is real and it's dated — 90 tomorrow, 85 Wednesday. So we pointed today's list indoors.

Paul Revere Williams: American Architect — Art Museum of the University of Memphis, 3750 Norriswood Dr., 9 AM–5 PM, free. Over 200 photographs of the Black architect who drew the original St. Jude — a five-pointed star the campus has long since swallowed — and whose father waited tables at the Peabody before the family went west. Up through October 11. Details

Jamming Group — International Harvester Clubhouse, 4523 Canada Road, Lakeland, 2–4 PM, free. An all-acoustic pickers-and-singers circle that meets every Monday the city offices are open. Bring an instrument, or bring a chair and let everyone else do the work. Details

Fix A Flat — Memphis Hightailers clubhouse, 397 Cumberland St., 6–9 PM, free. Three hours and a room full of tire levers, and you come out able to get yourself home instead of calling someone. Open to non-members at no charge; the club will take a donation if you insist. Details

FELICITY — "Beyond" Part 2 Tour — Growlers, 1911 Poplar Ave., doors 7 PM, show 8 PM, $15–$20. A touring rock bill on a Monday night, which is not a thing Memphis Mondays usually hand you. Details

Board Games, Bad Movies & Beer Bust — Hi Tone, small room downstairs, 282-284 N. Cleveland St., 7 PM, no cover, 21+. The downstairs room turns into somebody's living room for the night: a stack of board games, a bad movie running, and nobody at the door taking money. Details

👶 With the kids

Homeschool Hangout — Germantown Community Library, 10:30–11:30 AM, free. Two rooms run at the same time, one for 5-to-10s and one for 10-to-17s, so a family with a spread of ages gets a table each instead of a compromise. No sign-up. Details

Crafternoon! — Randolph Library, 3752 Given Ave., 4–5 PM, free, ages 5 to 12. An after-school craft hour that only runs the first and third Monday of the month, so this is one of two shots all September. Details

A.A.A. (All About Anime) Club — Burch Library, Collierville, 5–6 PM, free, ages 12 to 16. Anime fans take over the storytelling room to watch together and make fuse-bead keychains. Walk in, no sign-up. Details

The teen production room inside Cloud901 at the Benjamin L. Hooks Central Library becomes the Tay Keith Music Lab this morning. The Grammy-nominated Memphis producer — four No. 1 records, credits with Beyoncé and Drake — died earlier this year at 29, and his family's foundation funded the lab along with a beat-making course, an archive of his notes and studio material, and an oral-history strand recorded by people who knew him.

Hattiloo turns 20 this season, and it's marking it tomorrow and Wednesday at the Halloran Centre, 225 S. Main, with Footlights to Spotlights: Black Theatre's Path. Doors and a lobby experience at 5:30, show at 6:30; Tuesday's rolls into an after-party. One act looks back at the moments that opened doors, the other at who's writing now. (via Hattiloo Theatre)

Big Bad Breakfast has a date for Cooper-Young: September 29, at 2149 Young Ave., in the storefront Mulan left. It's the second Memphis room for chef John Currence's biscuit-and-hot-sauce house, and Action News 5 reports it'll run 7 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. daily. (via Action News 5)

Hive's second shop, at 585 Erin Drive in East Memphis, is now running full hours — 7 to 7, seven days. That's a longer day than the original downtown shop on South Front, which still shuts at 4. (via Hive)

Medal Mondays — Wiseacre's OG taproom, 2783 Broad Ave., 4–10 PM. Four-dollar pints of the ones that have come home with hardware: Tiny Bomb, Sky Dog, Sky Dog Amber and the Oktoberfest. A cheap way to spend the last evening of summer in the air conditioning. Details

Redbirds playoff baseball, starting tomorrow — AutoZone Park, first pitch 6:45 PM, lower bowl from $9.01. Memphis hosts Rochester for the International League championship, and all three games are here: Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday if it goes the distance. Details

Art for Jobs — 575 Suzette St., Thursday, 5:30–7:30 PM, free with an RSVP. Advance Memphis's 16th annual art sale: 100-plus local artists, a Stax Music Academy jazz ensemble, and the art itself goes on sale in the room at 6:30. Details

Hispanic Heritage Celebration at the Shell — Overton Park Shell, 1928 Poplar Ave., Saturday October 3, 7–9 PM, free. Los Kumbia Brotherz bring cumbia to the Shell for the Orion free series, with Danza Azteca Xochiquetzal and DJ Mala Leche. Details

We asked this week whether this thing had actually helped you find something to do yet. Melissa H. wrote back: "Just moved here 2 weeks ago & we attended Cooper-Young Festival." Two weeks in the city and already at the biggest street party of the year — that is the entire idea.

Summer officially ends tomorrow evening, so today is the last day the complaining is technically justified. Make it count: what's the one indoor Memphis spot you retreat to when it's like this? A cold booth, a quiet library floor, a movie theater you trust. Send it over and we'll run the best answers this week.

The tip line never closes — a pop-up, a band, a class nobody advertises. No gatekeeping — send it to hey@heymemphis.co.

That's it for today — see you tomorrow at 6.
