Final days for ‘Tatau’
The Utah Museum of Fine Arts’ exhibition “Tatau: Marks of Polynesia,” which opened back in August, is ending this week — its final day is Saturday.

The museum this week will be open Wednesday, 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., and Thursday and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Go to umma.utah.edu for information.

iDKHOW before the new year
If you want to get in one last rock show in before the calendar ticks over to 2024, the Utah indie-pop act I Don’t Know How But They Found Me (or iDKHOW for short) — the project of musician Dallon Weekes — is home for a show Saturday, starting at 9 p.m., at The Depot, 13 N. 400 West, Salt Lake City. Another Utah band, Sego, is slated to open. Tickets available at depotslc.com.
