Support the independent voice of Phoenix and help keep the future of New Times free.

We all know First Fridays lose a little of their luster during the hot summer months, but the August edition will have a pretty cool event in the Train Tracks Quarter Finals at the Phoenix Art Museum. Now, it's true the popular site has worked it's way through most of the Valley's buzz bands and now has an R&B quintet singing a cover of The Thymes "So Much In Love," but this still sounds like a good thing to check out if you're braving the heat.
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.
