Support the independent voice of Phoenix and help keep the future of New Times free.
Visiting the House of Rice in Scottsdale is a pleasure any time of year -- the place is packed to the rafters with Japanese knick knacks -- but it's especially fun right about now, when every mall starts to look the same and your Christmas shopping budget is starting to dwindle.
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.
