Support the independent voice of Phoenix and help keep the future of New Times free.
Each week, Jackalope Ranch brings you a free event, workshop, or you-name-it happening in Phoenix. Because sometimes the best things in life really are free. This week's freebie: Marshall Shore: Retro Spectacular
Listen up, history buffs: Phoenix's favorite unofficial historian, Marshall Shore, is gearing up this week to take curious locals on another trip down memory lane -- or more specifically, Route 66.

This free Route 66 Retro Spectacular will be held on Thursday, January 10 at 7 p.m. inside Phoenix Metro Retro and will feature all forms of fact and fascination along the iconic strip of Americana.
Prepare to learn, discuss, and maybe even be surprised as Marshall Shore explores the history of Route 66, Arizona, the 1930's, and how it all ties in with John Steinbeck's Grapes of Wrath.

Keep Phoenix New Times Free... Since we started Phoenix New Times, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Phoenix, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Phoenix with no paywalls.
