Live music, comedy, a cats exhibit. Here’s three ideas for your Tuesday.

From domesticated pets to mythic symbols of divinities, felines played an important role in ancient Egypt for thousands of years. The Carlos Museum will present Divine Felines: Cats of Ancient Egypt, an exhibition featuring cats and lions (and even dogs and jackals) in ancient Egyptian mythology, kingship, and everyday life. Through Nov. 11. 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Tuesday $8; students, senior citizens and children ages 6-17, $6; free for children ages 5 and younger, members and Emory students, faculty and staff with Emory ID.
