Shadow Play Deus Ex Machina Sat., May 17, 8:00pm Central Phoenix
The Backwards Theatre honchos behind this production describe it as "a bizarre evening of experimental theater . . . in exploration of the shadow realm." If that doesn't grab ya, there'll also be storytelling and "flickering images." More >>
Cardiac Party, Amo Joy, & more Trunk Space Sat., May 17, 8:00pm Central Phoenix  
It's no small source of stupid pride for me that there are a million cool anagrams for my name, everything from Mr. Iodine Scene to I Sneer Demonic to No Dicier Semen. Any one of these would make a natty album title. But apparently, it's equally no small source of stupid pride for Cardiac Party... More >>
"Convergent” Outdoor Mural/Graffiti Art Show and Concert 1700Curry Sat., May 17, 3:00pm-11:00pm Tempe
When one door slams shut, another usually opens. Take Tempe's Aztec Self Storage; its 120 doors closed and then reopened as the more artistic-sounding 1700Curry. The business at 1700 East Curry Road is still a place to store your high school memories, but on Saturday, May 17, the four acres of... More >>
Frock N' Roll feat. Crash Street Kids, Champagne Tap, & The Blueshounds Club Mardi Gras & VooDoo Lounge Sat., May 17, 7:00pm South Scottsdale
The annual runway-meets-rock fundraising spectacular has a new home this year -- it's not at Alice Cooper'stown for the first time ever -- but the same old appeal: eye-candy models strutting haute stuff designed by locals to a soundtrack laid down by AZ indie musicians. Proceeds benefit one of... More >>
Moonlight Movies in the Park: Jurassic Park Steele Indian School Park Sat., May 17 Central Phoenix
As you know – because you’re a New Times reader and we’re New Times – we’re not the sort to glad-hand politicians. If we were clinging to the lip of a crevasse and forced to pick a pol to save our life, we’d just let go. If choosing death wasn’t an option,... More >>
Phoenix Sports Card Show feat. William “The Refrigerator” Perry North Phoenix Baptist Church Sat., May 17, 12:30pm-2:00pm Central Phoenix
Many contend that retired athletes ride the sports-memorabilia gravy train for the payola. We say they’re bored. Let’s take former NFL star William “The Refrigerator” Perry, since he’s handy. The Fridge was never the smartest appliance in the showroom, but an... More >>
Phoenix Surplus Public Auction City of Phoenix Auction Yard Sat., May 17, 8:00am-3:00pm West Phoenix
How serendipitous! We've been looking high and low for a scissor lift, a portable light plant, and a used garbage truck. Also up for for grabs at this annual city-merch offload: cars, pickup and utility trucks, vans, dump trucks, trailers, a scissor lift, scrap wire and metal, and much more. More >>
Phoenix Mercury vs. Los Angeles U.S. Airways Center Sat., May 17, 12:30pm
more dates/times
Central Phoenix
It’s no big shocker that fans in these parts have more passion for basketball than any other pro sport. Okay, then, so explain why a pro-basketball squad that’s actually won something is virtually ignored while the other, can’t-quite-win-the-big-one team attracts rabid,... More >>
“Lyle Ashton Harris: Blow Up” Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art Every week Thursday from Thu., February 14 until Thu., May 22, 10:00am-8:00pm
more dates/times
Central Scottsdale
A single, quick glance at Billie #14 is all it takes to burn the name Lyle Ashton Harris into one’s brain forever. Ashton’s transfer print from an old Polaroid is so evocative of a long-gone glamour era, so transformative of Billie Holiday’s unmistakable visage, that no one who... More >>
"An Unusual Love Story" David+Lisa Phoenix Theatre's Little Theatre Every week Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Thu., May 15 until Sun., May 25 Central Phoenix
It’s an age-old story: Boy is committed to insane asylum; boy meets schizophrenic girl in insane asylum; boy and girl perform interpretive dance moves and fall in love. David and Lisa is a story that, sans the dance moves, has been told in many formats, first as a well-regarded novel, then... More >>
Gross Indecency: The Three Trials of Oscar Wilde Herberger Performance Outreach Theater Every week Sunday from Sun., May 11 until Sat., May 24, 2:00pm
more dates/times
Central Phoenix
Oscar Wilde's "trial of the century" could well have taken place yesterday. It's got all the right ingredients, such as celebrities, art, sex, and our persistent appetite to see those perched comfortably at the height of fame pulled down into the muck. Although Wilde lived and traveled openly... More >>
Arizona Diamondbacks vs. Detroit Tigers Chase Field Sat., May 17, 5:10pm
more dates/times
Central Phoenix
Every generation or so, the universe slips off its axis and Detroit catches a break. Right now, Motown’s livin’ large with the success of the Detroit Tigers, Pistons, and Red Wings. (Lions? We said the universe slipped, not ended.) But when the Tigers dropped their first seven games... More >>
Arizona Duck (DUKW) Tour Pleasant Harbor Marina at Lake Pleasant Daily, 10:00am
more dates/times
Peoria
Military intelligence, as the old saw goes, is an oxymoron. But the dudes in khaki got it right when they introduced the odd amphibious vehicle called the DUKW during WWII. The bastard spawn of a U-boat and a Hummer helped American troops survive beach attacks like Normandy by transporting... More >>
Arizona Skin Art Expo University of Phoenix Stadium Sat., May 17, 10:00am-10:00pm
more dates/times
Glendale
There are three types of people in this world: those with tattoos, those without, and those who need a little persuading. If you’re on the fence, check out the Super Bowl of epidermal modification, the Arizona Skin Art Expo, which features more than 100 of the top tattoo maestros from... More >>
ASU Baseball vs. Washington Packard Stadium Sat., May 17, 6:00pm
more dates/times
Tempe
Hey, Pat Murphy. It’s time to stop worrying. Really, man. Unless your ASU Baseball squad drops its remaining seven games (which ain’t gonna happen), your team is officially, yet again, one of the elite teams in college baseball this season. If you listen to the Sun Devils’... More >>
"Chado Ralph Rucci" Phoenix Art Museum Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., March 21 until Sun., August 17 Central Phoenix
High fashion in the Phoenix area is still associated with statements like, "Why, yes, I did get this at Macy's." In this town, you're more likely to be judged by the overall hue and breadth of your tan than for your taste in Balenciaga footwear. This may change some when Barney's opens in... More >>
Conspire’s Handmade Art Market Conspire Third Saturday of every month, 11:00am-3:00pm Central Phoenix
Think of all those scientists who wear tube socks, own the complete Babylon 5 series on DVD, and scream out the Pythagorean theorem when they bust their load. We’re afraid that if they don’t find some creative outlet, they’re doomed for some wicked shit. Don’t believe us?... More >>
"Feathered Dinosaurs and the Origins of Flight" Arizona Museum of Natural History Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday from Tue., March 4 until Thu., July 3, 10:00am-5:00pm
more dates/times
Mesa
Gigantic, pissed-off chickens with teeth. That’s the impression created by the imposing models on display in the “Feathered Dinosaurs and the Origins of Flight” exhibit. After you check out these dentally impressive fowl, run for your life to Arizona Science Center and marvel at... More >>
"Gardians of the Camargue: The French Buckaroo Tradition" Burton Barr Central Library Daily from Fri., May 9 until Thu., July 31 Central Phoenix
Think “cowboy” and y’all will most likely imagine vast expanses of the old American West. But as long ago as the first nomads got footsore and became farmers, human, horse, and bull forged a triumvirate that emerged around the world. For example, the Camargue region of France is... More >>
"In the Artist's Studio: The Paintings of Jeffrey Gold" Mesa Contemporary Arts Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., February 29 until Sun., May 18 Mesa
As hard as we try to forget our childhood, the human memory, once triggered, can overpower our best efforts. For example, some jerk in your office decides to watch the Lite-Brite commercial on YouTube and you suddenly have a flashback: 6-year-old you – wearing knee-high tube socks and a... More >>
"Josh Greene: Some Parts Might Be Greater Than the Whole" ASU Art Museum at Nelson Fine Arts Center Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Tue., February 19 until Sun., May 18 Tempe
If you usually go to a museum for quiet contemplation, ditch Josh Greene’s “Some Parts Might Be Greater Than the Whole” exhibit, which encourages elbow-rubbing among strangers. Greene’s “installation” — part of ASU Art Museum’s Social Studies series... More >>
Mini Munnys Synthetic Compound Daily from Fri., March 7 until Sat., May 31 Central Phoenix
Who knew that Mr. Potato Head, the spud born of George Lerner's childhood imagination that Hasbro marketed to the masses in the ’50s, was the forerunner of a bright DIY future? These days, interchangeable plastic features have given way to Kidrobot’s Munny, a blank canvas of a toy... More >>
Nidaa Aboulhosn’s "Conatus. Every Day." @Central Gallery Daily from Fri., May 2 until Thu., May 29 Central Phoenix
It’s tough to artistically capture a war-torn land or a place that’s experiencing upheaval without falling into a clichéd, depressing point of view about the affected country and its people. You won’t find such an empty portrayal in Nidaa Aboulhosn’s “Conatus.... More >>
Salt River Tubing & Recreation Salt River Tubing & Recreation Daily from Sat., May 3 until Tue., September 30, 9:00am-7:00pm Mesa
Rednecks tend to be attracted to large bodies of water. Don’t believe us? How else to explain the “Redneck Riviera” spanning the area from Mobile, Alabama, to the Emerald Coast near Apalachicola, Florida? Though we live in the desert, that doesn’t mean our state is running... More >>
Songs for a New World Soul Invictus Gallery & Cabaret Every week Friday, Saturday from Fri., May 9 until Sun., May 25, 8:00pm
more dates/times
Central Phoenix
Think of how much money you wasted when you switched your college major four times. And did you know you’ll make at least three significant career changes in your lifetime? Welcome to the age of waffling. Society’s encouragement of self-reflection has turned you into an indecisive... More >>
