MISC: CARVER PARK & BMI DURING WWII AND BEYOND Historians say the founding of the City of Henderson starts with the Basic Magnesium Incorporated (BMI) plant. The plant, which supplied munitions and airplane parts during World War II, opened in 1941 and brought 13,000 workers to the desert area between Las Vegas and Boulder City, according to the Henderson Historical Society. The nonprofit has partnered with Clark County to spotlight the segregated housing development built for BMI’s Black workers, Carver Park. Designed by the acclaimed Historic Westside architect Paul Revere Williams, Carver Park comprised 324 units. Today, Elks Lodge off East Lake Mead Parkway appears to be the only remaining building. Panelists—former Carver Park residents; Claytee White, director of the UNLV Oral History Research Center; and Dr. Earnest N. Bracey, professor of Political Science and History at CSN—will discuss Williams, the impact of Carver Park and BMI on the history of Henderson, and what happened to the development. 6 p.m., free, Clark County Museum, clarkcountynv.gov. –Shannon Miller

MISC: FILM: THE HUNGER This October the Beverly Theater is screening an extraordinary run of spooky season classics. (This week alone: Evil Dead 2, Repo! The Genetic Opera, Suspria, The Shining, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me and more.) But if you have a particular affinity for the Beverly’s sound system and a good smoky eye, you don’t want to miss Tony Scott’s 1983 cult classic The Hunger, a visually atmospheric and thoroughly kinky vampire yarn starring Catherine Deneuve, Susan Sarandon and David Bowie. Deneuve and Bowie camp it up as a pair of immortal bloodsuckers always on the lookout for a throuple situation or a liquid lunch, while Sarandon plays a doctor who gets caught up in their whole weird thing. Bonus: The movie opens with Bauhaus performing “Bela Lugosi’s Dead.” If you miss this afternoon screening, it’ll reappear at 7:15 p.m. on October 26. 3 p.m., $10, the Beverly Theater, thebeverlytheater.com. –Geoff Carter

MISC: SHAMELESS PLUG ARTS FESTIVAL It’s a question that comes up a lot: How do we support the arts? Start by clearing your calendar for this free, one-day celebration of Las Vegas creatives. The third annual Shameless Plug Arts Festival offers a window into our city’s best and brightest musicians, designers, zine-makers, sculptors and painters under the banner of fostering a more supportive community around the scene. Local art collective and media company Eccentric Artists launched the festival in 2021 as a way to invite collaboration without competition. This year’s fest, themed around the nostalgia of the late ’90s and early 2000s, features more than 25 exhibitors, including queer zine-maker Cosmic Q Publishing and stop-motion animator Imaginary Frames, plus live performances from pop/hip-hop outfit Panda, singer-songwriter Rhaina Yasmin, musical comic and actress Serenity Garcia (Party Down, Home Economics), Latin funk band The Red Seduction and more. Also returning this year is Eccentric Artists’ film showcase challenge, in which attendees will view and vote on indie submitted films based on nostalgia. 4:30 p.m., free (donations encouraged), Fergusons Downtown, eccentricartists.space. –Amber Sampson

FOOD & DRINK: PASTA & PUCCINI Opera and dining don’t necessarily go hand in hand. But shouldn’t they? In its 25th year, Opera Las Vegas is hosting a “mini-gala” at Monzú Italian Oven with entertainment from a quartet of top-tier singers. The evening will feature chef Gio Mauro’s fine food and wine paired with opera selections by 19th-century librettist Giacomo Puccini, including Madama Butterfly, Turandot, Tosca, and La Bohème. Guests can look forward to traditional pasta, pizza, and cannoli for dessert, served with the age-old, electrifying art of opera … If that’s wrong, we don’t want to be right. 5:30 p.m., $150-$200, Monzú Italian Oven, operalasvegas.com. –Shannon Miller
